Drop-in Components

Render MLS properties anywhere across your Replit app's pages.

Built for SPAs

Hooks into React's lifecycle so widgets work with client-side routing.

Give your Replit real estate app serious MLS authority

Add IDX to your Replit website.

Replit builds a React app you fully control, so Buying Buddy installs as the official React package that adds MLS search, property listings, interactive maps and lead capture as idiomatic components.

A single <BuyingBuddyProvider> loads the runtime for your account, then you add <BuyingBuddyWidget> components wherever you need MLS content - no manual script tags.

It is built for single-page apps, so widgets initialize correctly even with client-side navigation - the common pain point with script-based IDX in React.

Your Replit Agent can do the whole install from our AI prompts - see Install in Replit with AI.

Built for React on Replit

Your pages, routes and metadata stay under your control with React's own routing. Buying Buddy widgets add the live MLS data, search and lead capture.

Buying Buddy widgets render in the browser after the runtime loads, hooking into React's component lifecycle so they initialize exactly when they mount - reliable in single-page apps and with client-side navigation.

You build SEO-friendly pages in Replit as usual, then drop in widgets for MLS search, listings and capture. Four foundation routes - results, details, market reports and communities - power the full search-to-listing flow.

Replit uses a separate publish step, and its preview and published sites are authorized separately in your Buying Buddy dashboard, so always test on your published domain.

How To Add IDX to Replit

The Buying Buddy React package installs like any other dependency in your Replit project - and your AI can do it for you.
  1. Install @buyingbuddy/react and wrap your app once with <BuyingBuddyProvider activationKey="...">.
  2. Add <BuyingBuddyWidget> components - a search form, your foundation routes (results, details, market report, communities), and the disclaimer.
  3. Publish, then authorize your preview and published Replit domains in your dashboard.

Prefer to let your AI do it? Paste our prompts into the Replit Agent - see Install in Replit with AI. Widgets are mobile- and container-responsive, so they fit any Replit layout.

More Properties Will Give You More Credibility

Displaying curated MLS properties across your Replit app is simple - configure a widget with a type and a filter.

Use the Widget Wizards in your Buying Buddy dashboard to define niche displays and hotsheet landing pages. The wizard guides you to specify what to show and gives you the configuration to use.

First, decide the widget (map, list, gallery).
Then pick the MLS criteria that define the properties to show. Map the result onto a <BuyingBuddyWidget> via its type and filter props.

Render that component on any page or route to show your curated displays of properties.

Style and Theme

Use Buying Buddy Widget Themes to seamlessly blend IDX widget content with your Replit app's design and brand.
  • The library holds a large collection of Themes.
  • Or, create a Theme, using the Theme editor.
  • Or, if you wish, you can also edit CSS if needed.

Replit IDX Plugin - Common Questions

Replit builds a React app, so Buying Buddy installs as the official package:

  1. Install @buyingbuddy/react and wrap your app once with <BuyingBuddyProvider activationKey="your-key">.
  2. Add <BuyingBuddyWidget> components - a search form, your foundation pages and the disclaimer.

No. Paste our prompt into the Replit Agent and it installs the package, adds the provider and drops in the widgets for you.

Widgets only load on domains registered to your account, and Replit authorizes its preview and published sites separately. Always test on your published domain, and ask our Help Desk to authorize a preview domain if you need one.

No. There are no API keys to obtain and nothing to host. Buying Buddy receives the IDX feed directly from the MLS and the widgets display it in your Replit app. An IDX license and MLS approval are required to show live data - a standard process we help you with - and until approval, widgets show our Demonstration MLS.
