Bolt.new is an AI-powered web development agent that allows you to prompt, run, edit, and deploy full-stack applications directly from your browser—no local setup required. If you're here to build your own AI-powered web dev agent using the Bolt open source codebase, click here to get started!
What Makes Bolt.new Different
Claude, v0, etc are incredible- but you can't install packages, run backends or edit code. That’s where Bolt.new stands out:
Full-Stack in the Browser: Bolt.new integrates cutting-edge AI models with an in-browser development environment powered by StackBlitz’s WebContainers. This allows you to:
- Install and run npm tools and libraries (like Vite, Next.js, and more)
- Run Node.js servers
- Interact with third-party APIs
- Deploy to production from chat
- Share your work via a URL
AI with Environment Control: Unlike traditional dev environments where the AI can only assist in code generation, Bolt.new gives AI models complete control over the entire environment including the filesystem, node server, package manager, terminal, and browser console. This empowers AI agents to handle the entire app lifecycle—from creation to deployment.
Whether you’re an experienced developer, a PM or designer, Bolt.new allows you to build production-grade full-stack applications with ease.
