Are folks making interesting programs entirely from REPLs? I use a JS REPL whenever I do math or want to manipulate some JSON for codegen or transforming some strings. That's about it!

@mauve With Elixir or Erlang you can connect a REPL to a running server, so we have a culture of doing that (either locally or against deployed environments) for debugging or experimenation. Also my company has canned scripts for connected REPLs that e.g. create mock data.
