What Bolt.new is
Bolt.new is a full-stack development platform from StackBlitz. A prompt produces an app that is built, edited, run and deployed inside the browser on WebContainers, so no local environment is needed, with support for Node.js, React, Next.js, Vue and Tailwind.
It integrates Anthropic's Claude model and connects to tools such as Figma, Supabase, Stripe and GitHub.
What you can do with it
- Build and run a full-stack app in the browser
- Preview changes while generating
- Deploy with one click
- Connect a database, payments or design files
Who it is for
- Developers who want no local setup
- Startup teams validating ideas
- Instructors running live demonstrations
What to watch out for
- Anything you build runs in someone else's browser environment; do not paste production secrets
- Generated apps still need review, tests and security checks before real users
- Third-party integrations mean your own API keys and quotas to manage
- Browser containers are convenient but not equivalent to your production runtime
