This project is really taking off - thank you so much everyone for your suggestions, contributions, and support! ❤ Couple of things: 1. If you make a contribution to this fork of Bolt.new, I WILL feature your change in a video! 2. I am certainly planning on opening up a PR to the original Bolt.new repo at some point! First though I want to make this more mature as a community. Fleshing out features, making it possible to set the API keys in the frontend somewhere, etc. so that it could be added into the main Bolt.new repo seamlessly. 3. If you are still having issues with the smaller models not opening up the code container on the right side, I address that 12 minutes into the video! This is something I am working on that will be a huge improvement for local LLMS!
@@ColeMedin Can you Add an option for users to begin their development process using an existing project as a starting point, rather than always starting from scratch.
Love seeing this! One thing I really appreciate is that you're not just keeping it to yourself, but you're allowing others to join in. That’s huge! 🤟 Thanks for not being like other TH-camrs, man. So many in the AI space have decided to monetize their subscribers. I get that they need to make money to support their content, but I’d much rather 'buy you a coffee' than spend money on some scammy course about making a billion-dollar business-like certain other TH-camrs with around 120,000 subscribers are trying to sell.
Thank you so much! My goal is to be much more giving, collaborative, and value packed than the average AI content creator, so I appreciate you calling that out a lot! I certainly don't blame the other TH-camrs for what they do, and I of course will have to monetize in some ways myself, but I'm working hard to do that in a way that doesn't involve wasting your time, selling scammy courses, or anything like that!
This is fucking fire bro thank you keep it up I built a whole app in 12 hours I’ve been trying to build this for 6 years this is a game changer no coding experience just constantly updating and fixing the errors via natural language prompts
Love to see this continuing! Could you please do more videos of use cases? I'd love to see it try web design or something, just to see the full process with ollama. I'm still having a lot of trouble getting the llm to move to console and not just reply like a regular chatbot
Thanks for the hardwork I have a suggestion plz add proper instructions for it to first run a command to initialize a project and then plan and edit files based on the plans This can make it a lot more robust😊
You bet!! Could you expand a bit more on what you are looking for here? I have instructions for running things in the README so I am curious what kind of follow up you keen on.
@@ColeMedin I am talking about a feature like cursor rules , web commands like these @web, a special folder for it to create plans in markdown files like current task, roadmap, plans , improvements,etc in the folder boltdocs. And it should always use the terminal commands like npx create react APp or sveltekit or svelte or something like that and it should then edit the necessary files according to the plans
With all the negative news about open source .i.e. Wordpress recently in the press 🤣 ... and OpenAI no longer being Open. You are restoring the heart of Open Source. Well done!!!
LM Studio and MSTY (my preferred GUI for LLMs) both use an OpenAI compatible API. Same as Ollama. I'd be willing to bet just pointing the Ollama provider at LM Studio's URL has a decent chance of working.
I believe you are right! And I for sure know that setting it up like I set up Groq would work since that just changes the OpenAI baseUrl like you are saying essentially!
Getting the image upload will be key to quickly iterating on POCs. On the Bolt paid plan I can dump a screenshot of an app I like or is similar and boom instantly I have the design, buttons, etc in place. Then I just reprompt with Bolt to make the buttons do the things I want. Image upload is more powerful than people think at times. +1 vote for this. Either way amazing job so far on the fork!! Thank you
This is amazing! Thank you Cole (and others) for your hard work. I'm so grateful for living on a planet where smart people like you provide dumb people like me with things like this! One huge thing I would love to see implemented, is something to prevent Bolt from re-writing code when you add a new function. There's a lot of one step forward, two step back in Bolt, where when you have added function A, B and are about to add function C.. it removes the work you did with function A. Very frustrating!
It's my pleasure! Thank you for the kind words! I agree that the rewrites are pretty frustrating! This would be a pretty fundamental change to how Bolt.new works, but a few others have raised this concern as well so I am certainly keep on fixing it and will add it to the list of improvements!
Load Local Projects!! I have been trying to do something like this! You can not do that with the paid version either. Yes, I am subscribed to the paid version also.
The ability for it to have other project context windows so when you start a new chat it can still have memory of the other chats and projects you did will be game changer
I can see this exploding over the next few months with all the features being added. Great work Another feature that would be HUGE is the ability to deploy to Netlify
You can do one thing instead of listing future updates open for everyone, distribute them to different persons to build. You can run a poll and taking the vote who wants to develop which feature. The individual has to provide a plan for tackling the problem. Then you will decide who will develop which feature. Otherwise multiple persons are doing the same thing. For example I have also implemented the Gemini integration.
I appreciate this suggestion a lot! The only problem is it would take a good amount of time + effort to organize this. So I might need to rely on people to check the pull requests and the checked off features to know what is left that needs to be implemented. But I love your suggestion so I will be thinking about how to do that efficiently!
I agree with the OP to an extent. There is another repo that is also a fork and they went the other extreme with around 480 open issues. But at least we have a way to communicate with each other. Discord with polling maybe. I like that better that TH-cam comments and GitHub issues
Great work! Just saw a video of Fragment saying it's better than Bolt. They have the functionality which your fork has of being able to select other models. So the Medin fork is probably the best already 😊 another thing with Fragment which could be an improvement of the Medin fork is the functionality to select and choose a persona for a session. Almost like scaffolding the session but not doing it in the prompting.
@@ColeMedin I've tried to build some cross-platform apps, i.e. both for mobile and web, and my experience is that the suggested tech stack for front- and back-end differs a lot between different models chosen. But could be that I should be better att prompting of course.
Great content and a great way to engage the open source community! Potential huge improvement: One challenge with these tools (bolt.new, cursor V0 etc) is that they start hallucinating and breaking existing code (or creating new errors) when generating new code, especially when the context become large (needle in the haystack problem). I think I have a solution on how to mitigate this problem. How would you like me to proceed in order to see if it could be part of this project?
Thank you very much! I appreciate you being willing to contribute to fix this problem. I agree it's a huge issue for really any AI coding assistant! The fact that you have a solution is incredible and you have me so curious haha You can absolutely feel free to make a pull request with your solution! Or if you want to contribute in any other way please let me know! Regardless - I would make an entire video on your contribute if you tackle this!
Imagine creating an agent that can create fine tuned agents automatically based on a URL of documentation of a particular library, framework or API... So every time you want to use a new library it creates a specialized sub agent who goes away scrapes all the documentation and examples for a library, creates the fine tuned agent and then the master agent has a specialist in that particular library or framework available to him. Imagine all that happening automatically in the backend.... 10-20 specialist agents fine tuned on all the working parts of your codebase. I bet the results would be infinitely better!
Just subscribe to your channel and loving what you’ve done so far with this project, these are 3 things that would turn the tide when it comes to code generation: image to code, running agents and importing projects
@@ColeMedin if the agents could run autonomously until the goal is achieved, if this could be done wow. Thanks for putting in the time and effort to create this (upgrade) it.
12:50 When an llm thinks, it uses less tokens then user input queries or llm inferences. In other words the reason why it helps is because the llm uses less tokens to process the request because its already in its context.
Freakin love it bro. I would monetize it though. Just a little. Just enough so you can hire help for bugs, support, updates, new features. Even if its $5-10 month or something.
Good question! Bolt.new can use a few different component libraries from my experience, and ShadCN is one of them! So yeah if you ask it to use ShadCN for the components it will 😎
The fact it rewrites all thebcode every time kinda sucks. Also gets stuck on errors it cant fix itself and the editing experience kinds sucks. Also will just start implementing changes merely from asking the llm a question. It kinda sucks in these aspects would be nice to fix. For this reason cursor and replit ai agents have been alot less frustrating
I have both replit and Bolt...and I'm trying to create a slightly more complex app...replit is too slow and often doesn't do what I ask, Bolt is more responsive but the problems you highlighted after as the app becomes more complex, they start to get boring and repetitive and I have to ask Claude or chatgpt for help to get it working. Cursor I haven't tried it yet
@@rouges666 Cursor is alot more flexible, but wont just go and build the entire app out for you in one go like replit and bolt. But once you get a minimal version of the app going, it allows alot more flexibility, and doesnt just overwrite all your code each time with changes. I have the paid version of replit, and also hit the limits each day. I havent hit any limits yet on cursor and im on the freeplan. Cursor will force you to learn more as well, which is think is better in the longterm. Today with replit i just couldnt get it to fix its own errors, and i just had to rollback, then hit usage limits.
I totally agree with you that the rewrites is a downside to using Bolt.new! As @rouge666 mentioned though the Bolt.new experience is often better than Replit, and then Cursor as you mentioned can build out an entire app. So in my mind, there is a time and place for both Bolt.new (and potentially Replit, it's still awesome) and Cursor. Bolt.new when you want to build something from scratch without coding in an IDE, and then Cursor to take your application further.
Great work! Just a question Did you contact the creators of bolt? Maybe you shouldn’t fork it but join their development , together you truly can build something even more awesome
Thank you and good question! I have not at this point, but maybe I would consider doing it! I am also probably going to be making some pull requests into the main open source repo once we build it out more.
@@ColeMedin amazing, I think just like you said, the power of open source is building together, their team obviously have some marketing and design skills :)
Hey Cole, this is awesome. Can you please add or suggest how this can be improved or trained for blockchain development e.g. Rust for solana. Not many code generators currently focus on blockchain, thanks.
I've been trying for months to do really relevant things with small LLM models like Llama 3.1 7B, Llama 3.2, Mistral, Gemma2. Of the many possible ways, Langchain JS, Python with Langchain, Node JS with and without frameworks, Python with and without frameworks and none of them can do anything relevant and useful without using GPT or another paid model. Does it make more sense in this incredible project (Bolt) to use models with fine-tuning instead of "super" prompt at least for local models? 🤔
I've been running into the same thing honestly! So many times smaller models fail to even create single functions that a model like Claude 3.5 Sonnet or o1 can knock out of the park. But yes with this fork of Bolt.new it's a step forward to being able to do these things with smaller models. Still work to be done for sure! A fine-tuned local LLM is for sure a great approach!
Thank you for your support! Agents in the backend is on the list and it'll be so incredible once we have that implemented! More to come on that for sure.
This be great instead all those wait times and limitations and credits these other developers put on the account we pay for you be in middle of building app then bam! You have to wait 1hour then 2hour then 3-4 absolutely crazy
Can you add a feature to give any documentation link(openai,crewai, autogen, langchain etc) , so that when we want to code using these frameworks, the llm will go to these documentation and create the correct code using that knowledge?
Personally I have an interest in learning C# and Blazor. From my very very limited understanding of web development, I assume this fork and the original bolt.new are centered around javascript / typescript frameworks. Would something similar for Blazor be possible? I’m currently studying C# (beginner level) and would love to have something like this to have AI coach me and review stuff I write so that I don’t have to Google everything myself.
I've done a bit of C# + Blazor myself a couple years ago and I think it's a great ecosystem! You are correct in assuming that Bolt.new (and this fork) is meant for JS/TS. But yes something similar with Blazor would definitely be possible! It would probably have to be a whole separate project though since the whole concept of a webcontainer in Bolt.new is centered around running a Node instance in the browser. A tool like Claude Dev/Cursor could still help you a ton with learning C# though! It just couldn't build out an entire app with a single prompt like Bolt.new.
@@ColeMedin Thank you! I studied the webcontainer thing a bit and understand a bit more what it does. It seems there is indeed no Blazor alternative for that. Keep going with this bolt fork, I’m learning a lot from it and I love how a community formed around this. Great work!
I love the idea, thank you! This would fit well within an agentic workflow which I am looking into adding support for with this platform. That would be awesome!
Cline + Supermaven over Cursor. 👌 But there is some secret system prompt sauce I feel Stackblitz is keeping from us. They can just get amazing 1 shot results that are functional
That's a more complicated implementation for sure... but I absolutely love it! That Pythagora demo has got me curious for sure. Do you have a link to that? 👀
We can go far with this project. It was an idea I had that someone implemented. He's own AI IDE involves ticking checkboxes next to files to decide which files or folders to include in the chat, in order to save tokens and, consequently, money. Here’s the yt video to the TH-cam project with many great ideas to make the Bolt project optimal, with as few tokens as possible, along with other ideas for potential prompts. m.th-cam.com/video/ikn7JSUflTI/w-d-xo.html
This is fantastic - thank you so much for sharing! From what I could tell though it seems his solution just works with Apple unfortunately, and I want something that can be used on all platforms like this Bolt.new fork. But the concepts from it could definitely be used here so I love it!
This is awesome, I have tried and it worked. But I have an issue I am not able to have a follow up instructions, it's stuck in the "Running command" although the command has run.
Fantastic, I'm glad it is working for you! This is a small bug with the open source version of Bolt.new that I've noticed myself. Something I am looking into fixing. Though it has actually completed your request so you can move on to follow up prompts without any issue!

Today with replit i just couldnt get it to fix its own errors, and i just had to rollback, then hit usage limits.
I totally agree with you that the rewrites is a downside to using Bolt.new! As @rouge666 mentioned though the Bolt.new experience is often better than Replit, and then Cursor as you mentioned can build out an entire app.
So in my mind, there is a time and place for both Bolt.new (and potentially Replit, it's still awesome) and Cursor. Bolt.new when you want to build something from scratch without coding in an IDE, and then Cursor to take your application further.
I'll love to contribute
Fantastic - I look forward to seeing your contributions!
This is awesome!
Thank you :D
haha I am literally doing the samething.. has so much potential :D
Do share if you are making it open source!
I recommend you to use Stack overflow LLM Api to make RIG so that it will make it even better ever!
I paid for 10M tokens but it made me frustrated.
cool! amazing job 💯👍
Thank you very much!
Great work.
Thank you!!
Great work! Just a question
Did you contact the creators of bolt? Maybe you shouldn’t fork it but join their development , together you truly can build something even more awesome
Thank you and good question! I have not at this point, but maybe I would consider doing it! I am also probably going to be making some pull requests into the main open source repo once we build it out more.
@@ColeMedin amazing, I think just like you said, the power of open source is building together, their team obviously have some marketing and design skills :)
ADD REQUEST: upload existing projects, need to go to cursor and back.
Thank you for the suggestion - this is indeed in the list of improvements!
fantastic fork. im not a developer, so i would appreciate a simple program flow to innstall
Thank you! Yes - I will working on making this even easier to install and then creating a guide on that!
Hey Cole, this is awesome. Can you please add or suggest how this can be improved or trained for blockchain development e.g. Rust for solana. Not many code generators currently focus on blockchain, thanks.
Yes, HuggingFace and Replicate
Great suggestions - thank you! I will add them to the list.
Remarkable!🎉
Welp, that's one key I'm never getting to use again 😄😄😄
Nice community and collab, don't mind if I join, soon tm
Thank you very much and I appreciate you wanting to contribute!
Can we have a simple GUI to enter the API keys pls 🙏
This is a great suggestion! It would require a lot of setup in the backend but it would make things a lot easier! I've got it added to the list!
I've been trying for months to do really relevant things with small LLM models like Llama 3.1 7B, Llama 3.2, Mistral, Gemma2. Of the many possible ways, Langchain JS, Python with Langchain, Node JS with and without frameworks, Python with and without frameworks and none of them can do anything relevant and useful without using GPT or another paid model.
Does it make more sense in this incredible project (Bolt) to use models with fine-tuning instead of "super" prompt at least for local models? 🤔
I've been running into the same thing honestly! So many times smaller models fail to even create single functions that a model like Claude 3.5 Sonnet or o1 can knock out of the park.
But yes with this fork of Bolt.new it's a step forward to being able to do these things with smaller models. Still work to be done for sure! A fine-tuned local LLM is for sure a great approach!
Teşekkürler. Missing agents running backend
Thank you for your support! Agents in the backend is on the list and it'll be so incredible once we have that implemented! More to come on that for sure.
This be great instead all those wait times and limitations and credits these other developers put on the account we pay for you be in middle of building app then bam! You have to wait 1hour then 2hour then 3-4 absolutely crazy
It should also include Python as beckend
Do you mean making Bolt.new work better with creating Python backends for the full stack apps? I certainly agree!
Great work.....👏👏👏
Can you add a feature to give any documentation link(openai,crewai, autogen, langchain etc) , so that when we want to code using these frameworks, the llm will go to these documentation and create the correct code using that knowledge?
awesome
Suggestion: Add the option for the model to automatically start debugging if the produced code throws an error.
You did an amazing job. Congratulations. Can I use OPENAI_API_KEY without ANTHROPIC_API_KEY?
Personally I have an interest in learning C# and Blazor. From my very very limited understanding of web development, I assume this fork and the original bolt.new are centered around javascript / typescript frameworks. Would something similar for Blazor be possible? I’m currently studying C# (beginner level) and would love to have something like this to have AI coach me and review stuff I write so that I don’t have to Google everything myself.
I've done a bit of C# + Blazor myself a couple years ago and I think it's a great ecosystem! You are correct in assuming that Bolt.new (and this fork) is meant for JS/TS. But yes something similar with Blazor would definitely be possible! It would probably have to be a whole separate project though since the whole concept of a webcontainer in Bolt.new is centered around running a Node instance in the browser.
A tool like Claude Dev/Cursor could still help you a ton with learning C# though! It just couldn't build out an entire app with a single prompt like Bolt.new.
@@ColeMedin Thank you! I studied the webcontainer thing a bit and understand a bit more what it does. It seems there is indeed no Blazor alternative for that. Keep going with this bolt fork, I’m learning a lot from it and I love how a community formed around this. Great work!
I would be awesome if you could you please add a documentation scraper like in Cursor? It would significantly reduce the number of errors 😄
I love the idea, thank you! This would fit well within an agentic workflow which I am looking into adding support for with this platform. That would be awesome!
Thank you - my pleasure :)
"Awesome work"!
Could we get the Nemotron model to work in this?
Great question! And the answer is yes! You just have to pull it from Ollama and it'll be available to use here.
ollama.com/library/nemotron
Great video, I have one question, is it possible to take all these request and run it on Cursor composer? If yes then why not trying to do it?
Thank you! This is something I would have to look into more to be able to answer for sure - but I am planning on diving into this exact thing soon!
Cline + Supermaven over Cursor. 👌
But there is some secret system prompt sauce I feel Stackblitz is keeping from us. They can just get amazing 1 shot results that are functional
Please make a full step by step tutorial how to setup and run also how to add api especially for ollama.
please add support of using hugging face's Api. you did a master picece !!!! thx
I will add this to the list in the morning - thanks for the suggestion!
How about showing diffs and accepting changes or not? I recently saw a pythagora demo which uses agents which looks like one of your list items
That's a more complicated implementation for sure... but I absolutely love it!
That Pythagora demo has got me curious for sure. Do you have a link to that? 👀
@@ColeMedin they have their own channel Cole, but I watched this on another channel: th-cam.com/video/spsG4G2sbrw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=dPPvv9TUlgsQFj0U
love this ❤🍻
THANK YOU A LOT, from Brazil. My Ollama was installed but not works.. =(
You are so welcome!! What is the error you are getting with Ollama?
We can go far with this project. It was an idea I had that someone implemented. He's own AI IDE involves ticking checkboxes next to files to decide which files or folders to include in the chat, in order to save tokens and, consequently, money. Here’s the yt video to the TH-cam project with many great ideas to make the Bolt project optimal, with as few tokens as possible, along with other ideas for potential prompts.

This is fantastic - thank you so much for sharing! From what I could tell though it seems his solution just works with Apple unfortunately, and I want something that can be used on all platforms like this Bolt.new fork. But the concepts from it could definitely be used here so I love it!
This is awesome, I have tried and it worked. But I have an issue I am not able to have a follow up instructions, it's stuck in the "Running command" although the command has run.
Fantastic, I'm glad it is working for you! This is a small bug with the open source version of Bolt.new that I've noticed myself. Something I am looking into fixing. Though it has actually completed your request so you can move on to follow up prompts without any issue!
@@ColeMedin It didn't respond to my follow up questions. When I inputted my next question and hit return, nothing happened.
LM Studio please!
It is on the list of improvements in the repo!! 🔥
Can this work with the free version of ChatGPT? My computer sucks too bad to run a LLM locally but Im hooked on using this to help me program?
Openrouter has some free models you can use remotely iirc
With the latest updates in the fork and others...you can pick from a number of free cloud LLM for free (Gemini Flash 1.5)
