Ability to transfer ownership of a Repl / app in Replit.

Use case:  
Similar to domain name, where you can transfer securely to another owner, in Replit, if you decide to transfer ownership of an app you’ve created in Replit, the new owner can accept transfer in their own Replit account and ‘take over’ and have full ownership over all code, deployment, etc.

I’ve asked about this before too. This is a necessary feature as people will want to build/sell apps.

Yes, the process for this is…not great at the moment.

Some of the platform’s costs are completely unfeasible, unfortunately.

Mark have you figured out a work around for this ?

I’m in the thick of it right now looking for a better way.

It remains terribly cumbersome to do this.

Agree with @realfunnyeric latest comment here, it is cumbersome to do this at this time. There isn’t a wonderful workaround, but it can be done. I am hopeful this is something the Replit team will address over time.
