About Bolt.new
bolt.new is a platform that enables rapid web application development by accepting natural language descriptions and generating complete, runnable projects in the browser. The system creates frontend UIs, backend logic, databases, authentication, and APIs, then executes everything client-side with live previews. It supports tasks such as scaffolding full-stack apps, editing code/files, installing packages, running terminals, importing/exporting to GitHub, deploying to hosting platforms, and sharing interactive demos. Additional functions include undo/redo, dark mode, multi-tab editing, real-time collaboration via links, and automatic error fixing suggestions, all via a browser-based IDE with no local environment required.

I built a proof of concept for investors using Bolt.new and did not touch a line of code manually
Context: I am a non-technical co-founder. My background is commercial, not engineering. I have had product ideas for years that went nowhere because I could not afford to build them speculatively and ...
