Bolt.new
Bolt.new (StackBlitz) runs a full Node.js dev environment in the browser via WebContainers — no setup, no install. You prompt a project, it scaffolds, npm-installs, and boots the dev server live in the tab. Compared to Lovable it's less guided and more "here's a working repo, now iterate" — closer to a hosted Cursor for people who don't want to manage local environments.
What it's good for
- 1
One-shot prototypes you want to share as a live URL within minutes
- 2
Teaching demos where you need a working code environment but no local install
- 3
Quick experiments with a framework you don't have set up locally
- 4
Tweaking an open-source project starter without cloning to your laptop
- 5
Client demos where iteration speed beats long-term code maintainability
How to use it
Type a prompt, watch Bolt provision the project, install dependencies, and launch the preview. Edit code in the in-browser editor or send follow-up prompts to refactor. Click Deploy to push to Netlify or download the project as a zip when you want to take it offline. The token-based pricing means longer iteration sessions burn through quota fast — keep prompts focused.
