My Experience as a Replit Design Intern
Blog post from Replit
Clément, a 15-year-old high school student from New York City, shares his experience as one of Replit's first design interns. During his internship, Clément actively contributed to designing Replit's interface, using tools like Figma and the Design System to revamp and update various platform pages, and successfully shipping over 200 pull requests. He collaborated with other teams to ideate, prototype, and build new features, such as the following feed and modular homepage design, and participated in an internal hackathon to create a Repl App Store. Clément also engaged in side projects, including a Replit on Apple Watch experience and designing Replit on Google Sheets. Throughout his internship, he gained technical skills in version control, GitHub, and frontend coding, while also learning valuable real-world skills like effective communication and critical thinking. Clément expresses gratitude to his mentors and colleagues for their support and looks forward to future collaborations with Replit.
