Sure, I can try and sell a whole different tool to my team, or accept that they just want to get things done and keep using the current tool that works everywhere but on replit.
I get where you're coming from, and I might take your advice next time I have to do something frontend-related (which hopefully I won't), but also understand that this works fine on most other tools' free tiers. In fact it builds from scratch and publishes to GitHub pages in 50s in GitHub Actions.
