Hey!

> How does it work?

It's a web application, so a lot of JavaScript.

> I tried the emacs keybindings on replit... what a joke

It needs some more love, the work is done out in the open, feel free to open issues. https://github.com/replit/codemirror-emacs

For what it's worth, we're not trying to recreate your emacs or VIM experience, just trying to port as many keybindings as we can. Will log the things you mentioned, it just seems like there's conflict with other keybindings.

> Maybe there are function keys bound? I wish I could find out.

Ctrl+Enter to run

> Is there any possibility of one of these "IDEs" having auto-indent / reindent? I see from the docs there's supposed to be one, but all I get is not-smart left/right motion.

What do you mean by left/right motion? Are you asking for like an auto-format feature? Or just handle re-indent when the indentation options change?
