I used to use Replit for minor code runs. Especially when learning things like array manipulation, etc.

But of late, their dashboard has become cluttered with ABSOLUTE JUNK. I no longer know where i am.

Is there a NO BS code editor (Online) that I can use for minor code runs?

Replit is good for making website mockups. That is what its quit good for. I actually find it better than figma, but thats because we use Replit for design purposes

For quick, minor code runs, I’d suggest JSFiddle or CodePen if you’re working with JavaScript. They’re much simpler and you can get straight to writing and running code without dealing with a huge dashboard.

If you need something that supports multiple languages, OneCompiler is also worth checking out.

stackblitz is pretty clean if you want a vscode feel without the setup. but if you just want to test quick logic and array stuff without any UI clutter, jdoodle is about as barebones as it gets... just select your language, paste the code and hit run. no dashboard junk to deal with.

I have an idea you may not have considered. Since you’re looking for an online editor, perhaps you want to code from a device other than your computer, such as a phone or Android tablet. One option is to set up your computer for remote desktop access (called RDP) , allowing you to use Visual Studio or another IDE and access your projects from those devices. Or you can use it as a secondary desktop!! Just something to consider.

if you want absolutely zero bloat, check out rextester. it looks like a site from 2012 but it supports almost every language and just works without any login or dashboard crap. for javascript specifically runkit is also pretty solid and keeps things minimal.
