One-stop platforms
Build and deploy in one place
- Replit
- Vibe-code and deploy in the browser — no local setup needed. Good for quick projects and prototypes; pricing can scale with use.
- Lovable
- Similar approach to Replit: build a full web app in the browser and deploy with one click. Strong for rapid prototyping without touching a terminal.
Developer stack
Maximum flexibility — requires installing a few tools
- Claude Code— Anthropic
- AI coding assistant that runs on your computer. Handles multi-file projects and iterative debugging — more capable than the all-in-one platforms for serious work.
- GitHub
- Free code hosting. Connects your project to Render so pushing an update refreshes your live site, and gives you a history so you can undo mistakes.
- Render
- Free-tier web hosting. Connects to GitHub and redeploys on push. Works with Canvas exports or full Claude Code projects.
