Prompt, run, edit, and deploy full-stack Node.js applications from a browser tab: Bolt.diy is the official open-source version of Bolt.new's AI coding agent. Its foundation is StackBlitz's WebContainer technology - a sandboxed in-browser Node.js environment where the AI controls the whole stack: filesystem, npm, dev servers, terminal, and browser console. That means the agent does not just generate code; it installs dependencies, runs Vite or Next.js, reads errors, and fixes them. The defining difference from Bolt.new is model choice per prompt: 19+ providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, DeepSeek, Groq, Mistral, Amazon Bedrock, and local models via Ollama or LMStudio, extensible through the Vercel AI SDK. Development ergonomics include live preview, a diff view of AI changes, codebase search, file locking to prevent generation conflicts, 15+ starter templates (React, Vue, Next.js, Astro, Svelte, Expo), and MCP support for external tools. Projects integrate with Git and Supabase, and deploy in one click to Vercel, Netlify, or GitHub Pages.

Admin panels, database GUIs, dashboards, approval flows, customer support consoles - Appsmith builds the internal tools your team keeps postponing, on an open-source low-code platform. The UI assembles from 45+ drag-and-drop widgets - tables with server-side pagination and inline editing, charts, forms, lists, buttons - which bind to data through {{ }} JavaScript expressions anywhere in the editor. Datasources cover PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, MS SQL, Redis, Snowflake, and more, plus any REST or GraphQL API, with SaaS integrations and AI query support for prompt-based steps inside apps. When the widget library falls short, custom widgets are plain JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, and external JS libraries can be imported, which keeps the platform extensible where pure no-code tools hit walls. Git-based version control enables branch-based collaboration, review, and rollback of app definitions. Queries and JS objects hold the business logic layer between datasources and UI. Self-hosted via Docker or Kubernetes, with role-based access control for published apps.
