Bolt
AI app builder in the browser
Build and deploy full-stack apps from your browser using prompts. Bolt generates, runs, and deploys code with zero local setup.
Best for
- Prompt-to-app scaffolds
- In-browser preview
- Fast throwaway prototypes
- Zero local setup
How builders use it
- →Describe the app in one paragraph, let it scaffold, then throw away everything you did not ask for.
- →Use it for the first 20 minutes of an idea, then export to a real repo before the file count grows.
- →Keep the prompt focused on one screen at a time — whole-app prompts produce whole-app mush.
