Over the next couple weeks we’ll be rolling out some features to Nut to substantially improve its capabilities. We want you to be able to give Nut a prompt to build a complete functioning app, and watch as it produces the app you’re looking for.
There are a couple main improvements involved:
- We’re letting Nut develop the app asynchronously, without your active involvement. Building an app is more than writing code. After making changes Nut will identify problems with the app and work on fixing those, including writing and debugging tests to make sure the app behaves as expected and prevent regressions from later changes.
- We’re making it easy to develop full stack apps using Nut. Nut is already good at building frontends, but that’s not enough. We just rolled out a Supabase integration so that Nut can add a database to the app, with no configuration needed. We’ll also be adding serverless function support this week so that Nut can build the backend too.
Together these features greatly increase the range of apps which Nut can build and the ease of doing so. AIs aren’t magic and Nut will still struggle to add complex functionality, but we want it to reliably generate straightforward CRUD apps that can call a wide range of external APIs.
To support this we’re also going to (finally) add a login and payment system to Nut so that you can use it as much as you want and easily deploy apps to production. We’re confident in the quality of Nut’s changes: Nut will do its work for free, and afterwards you can decide if you like them and want to pay for them. We’re excited to see what you build with Nut, and want you to do this quickly, easily, and without risk.
