Bolt.new is an incredible tool for simplifying full-stack development! The ability to create, run, and deploy applications directly from the browser without writing any code is a game changer!
Bolt is great and I've created lots of nearly functional apps with it and many websites. I don't code hence being excited to use this. The tokens are a generous amount but it's unfortunate that they still get consumed when there's errors because solving the errors can take quite a while. I wonder if the "undo" aspect should also undo the tokens used? Just from guessing i'd say 50% of mine were spent on this.
I used this to build a landing page from scratch. It was able to product a clean reactjs application that I was then able to ship via Vercel. I was also able to add some already built react components that it was able to integrate seamlessly into the page. Awesome tool worth playing around with!
bolt.new has changed everything about how I think about creating and has introduced me to my future.
It doesn't work properly. Bolt couldn't fix a simple API validation problem inside a generated app, but it consumed about four million tokens trying to do so. It seems like bolt.new doesn't support "DeepThink"-like capabilities. It negligently repeats the exact same steps and "fixes" every time. Even worse, it literally took me less than 20 seconds to locate and fix the error by myself.
They have done an incredible job on shortening the coding cycle and bringing ideas closer to reality.
I bought the subscription for creating app. But generated app didn't launch. It is very ugly!!! Back me money!!!!
So I tried to build an EV database. Good understanding and nice schema as far as I can tell. Understood a switch from USD to EUR and from miles to kilometer. Biggest problem was the images. Most were broken and those who were not showed the wrong car. Seems images are picked up from Unsplash without checking their integrity or correctness. And then I run out of free credits. So all in all, same story as with most of these AI tools I'm afraid :) Willingness to pay for this service today: 0
