What is v0?
A website which allows you to create web applications (only). As of time of writing it does not support developing mobile applications.
Web applications is a broad term used to describe a website that another user can interact with. This includes but is not limited to a software as a service, landing pages or even a store.
v0’s strength lies in the fact that you can describe what you want in plain English and the AI agent within the platform will build out the web application for you. The agent will handle errors which may arise, search the web for other website’s information/documentation and integrate with external applications.
Why not x platform? I’ve tested pretty much everything on the market. Nothing comes close to how deeply integrated v0 is with the platform Vercel which, as you’ll see soon, is a huge benefit for development for getting your web applications into the hands of users and taking the code to develop locally on your own device.
What features does it have?
Here is a snippet from the website’s docs:
Describe your idea in your preferred language.
Create high-fidelity UIs from your wireframes or mockups.
Add functionality by describing workflows and business logic as steps.
Deploy with one click to a secure, scalable infrastructure.
Search the web for current information and get cited results.
Inspect websites to understand their structure and content.
Automatically fix errors in your code with intelligent diagnostics.
