About Bolt.new
Bolt.new runs an entire Node.js environment inside your browser tab via WebContainers, which means the AI writes code and you see it execute immediately, no cloud VM spin-up. It handles full-stack JavaScript, supports Figma imports, and deploys to Netlify in a click. Token-based pricing rewards focused sessions and punishes rambling ones.
