The honest brief

Firebase Studio

Free and fully browser-based with no local setup, tying a real Code OSS editor straight into Gemini agents and the Firebase deploy stack.

  • Runs fully in the browser, no setup
  • Gemini agents and Genkit built in
  • One-click deploy to Firebase
  • Free core tier
  • Prototype apps from a prompt
  • Still in preview
  • Tied to the Google/Firebase ecosystem
  • Gemini-only assistant
  • Workspace limits on the free tier

v0

Emits real shadcn/ui + Tailwind React code you can paste into a project — production primitives, not throwaway mockup markup.

  • Uses production shadcn/ui primitives
  • Copy-paste into existing projects
  • Tight Vercel deploy integration
  • Fast iteration in v0 projects
  • Opinionated toward shadcn/Tailwind
  • Single tuned model, not configurable
  • Best within the Vercel ecosystem
  • Complex apps need hand-finishing
