StackBlitz began their journey offering a cloud-based IDE for R&D teams to write, run, and debug frontend code in a collaborative environment. More recently, the company released a gamechanging new product, Bolt.new, borrowing components of the original StackBlitz architecture, to power its AI-powered web application builder.

The impact of Bolt on the state of web app development has been remarkable; citizen developers and expert developers alike are now able to build web applications, complete with a working frontend and backend, simply using smart prompts. To quickly illustrate its power, a user can go from zero product to a working SMB field services CRM, sellable for $600 on Upwork, in a matter of 5 prompts.

StackBlitz was founded by 2x co-founders Eric and Albert. The duo, and their team, have caught lightning in a bottle, and we can’t wait to see where they strike next.
