Bolt.new: Full Stack Apps for Free

Build and run full stack AI apps locally with Bolt.

Lesson Notes

Bolt.new generates a full stack codebase (typically React + a simple backend) from a single prompt and lets you download or run it instantly. It is great for learning because you get real code you can study, unlike black-box no-code tools. When running locally, read the README it generates — it usually includes setup steps and environment variables you need.

Your Challenge

+20 XP

Go to bolt.new. Prompt it to build a simple notes app with markdown support. Download the project, install dependencies, and run it locally. Note any errors you hit and how you fixed them.
