Hey @rvakid82,
Glitch is a simple tool for creating web apps and a friendly community. The Glitch Editor is an online code editor with various tools like linting and formatting, mainly meant for Node.js (server-side and HTML, CSS, and JS (static client-side sites), although PHP, Python and other languages do work in a Glitch project. To see a complete list of languages that work just fine on Glitch, go to Language support on Glitch: a list.
When you remix a project on Glitch, you’re creating a copy of an existing project that you’re then able to edit and make any changes that you want. So for example, Glitch provides a number of community projects (created by other users) that are examples of doing specific things on Glitch that you can remix to get started with your own web apps quickly.
To quickly get started, Glitch offers 3 basic starter templates: ~hello-webpage, ~hello-express and ~hello-sqlite. ~hello-webpage is a basic webpage with only basic HTML, CSS and JS. ~hello-express is a Node.js project with Express routes configured. ~hello-sqlite is ~hello-express with an additional SQLite database. Or you can import from an exisiting GitHub repository. Of course, you can edit your projects as much as you want.
Glitch is open to everyone, from starters to pro. You can use Glitch as a learning tool as well.

Usually, the README of each project is useful, you should read the README because most of the time it contains instructions on how to use that particular project.
