Reviewer scorecard
“AI-generated full-stack apps running instantly in the browser. The StackBlitz WebContainer foundation makes it actually work.”
“Hasura-powered GraphQL over Postgres with auth and storage. The GraphQL-first approach is powerful for complex data needs.”
“Describe an app, see it running immediately. The fastest path from idea to working prototype.”
“bolt.new represents the convergence of AI generation and instant execution. This is how rapid prototyping will work.”
“GraphQL adoption has plateaued. tRPC and REST are simpler for most use cases. Nhost's bet on GraphQL is risky.”
“If you want GraphQL, Nhost is the best BaaS option. Hasura's automatic GraphQL from Postgres is genuinely useful.”
