Free, open-source AI app builder that runs on your own machine
Apps live in a normal project folder on your machine, so you can work offline with local models and open files in any editor.
Bring your own keys for OpenAI, Anthropic or Google, or run local models through Ollama, LM Studio and similar runtimes.
Connect a database with authentication and get instant schemas and migrations without leaving the app builder.
The tool checks for injection flaws, unsafe patterns and misconfigurations against OWASP-style rules before you deploy.
A full-stack, browser-based AI workspace for building apps
Use Gemini in Firebase to code, debug, test, refactor, explain, and document, with the option to bring your own model.
Turn natural-language prompts, mockups, drawings, and screenshots into a working application starting point.
Built-in web previews and Android emulators let you test full-stack apps as users would experience them.
Share preview URLs with testers and let multiple teammates contribute to the same project simultaneously.
