At a glance
The honest brief
Replit
Build, database, and hosting all live in the browser, so its Agent can ship a working app with zero local setup.
- Agent scaffolds, runs, and deploys
- One-click publish, no local setup
- Frontier models power the Agent
- Works from phone or browser
- Checkpoint/usage costs can surprise
- Less control than a local IDE
- Heavier apps strain the platform
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
