A browser IDE that grew a vibe-coding agent — build, run and host in one tab.

Pick this when

You want the generated app to live somewhere runnable immediately and you like an IDE view rather than pure chat.

What makes it different

Built a working blog in the BC4 bake-off — a real result, not a shell

IDE plus hosting in one place, so there's no deploy step to learn

What it does

Generates apps from prompts and runs them in the browser

Hosts the result without a separate deployment platform

What it does not do

Common wrong expectations

Doesn't escape the pattern — like its peers it pushes its own cloud ecosystem

Where it sits in a stack

MVP builds where you want the running app and the code in the same window.
