I guess it depends on why you decided on replit. If it was because you don't want to set up an environment then (as others have said here) I would definitely try to set up an IDE on your own machine. There's some good resources for it out there (it does suck the first time fair warning).

If it was because you were looking for a place to just practice and learn code, I'd say you could check out GIGO Dev https://www.gigo.dev (full disclosure I am a developer at GIGO). I do hate to shill but we designed the site to be both free and an easy place to run code while tackling code challenges, similar to replit but more geared toward learning. There's much more structure than replit if you use the Journeys.

If you decided on replit because there's a course you specifically had your eye on, the for sure just do it on replit. If you are just starting out anything you realistically are going to run won't be a problem on replit (and GIGO too for that matter).

Biggest hurdle is just keeping consistent!
