    Codepen doesn't have as much as repl.it but it is a great alternative for people who love coding websites and such

    CodePen specialises on website development. So it includes HTML, CSS &JS support with preview functionality. For executing other languages repl.it is more useful.

    It's simple, straight and clearly structured which is exactly what I need on occasions, while it might not look as good as repl.it also I don't have to sign in as opposed to repl.it, it is once click away online coding environment.
