Opus 5 works pretty well and doesn't cost much when generating apps in @clickly.app When the initial starter app is generated, Clickly allows you to fine-tune it with instant visual edits. That doesn't consume AI tokens and doesn't require you to fight LLMs to explain your precise edits.
New monthly update from @clickly.app youtu.be/NIQdnuJ7-yc Main highlights: - Finished the deterministic code compiler that supports 100% of the available functionality in Clickly. - New UI toolbar with cleaner categories and component sets. 👇

That's how live preview works in @clickly.app 1️⃣ Build an app on the platform (with AI or not) 2️⃣ Scan QR code to open it with Expo Go 3️⃣ Test a real dynamic app with all native elements and transitions Every change is instant. No rebuilds, no restarts. Just real-time updates while you browse the app

I compared the top 10 AI models from Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, and xAI to see how they generate UI in @clickly.app The prompt was exactly the same for all 10 and extremely simple: "Create a mobile app." And after that, Clickly allows precise visual edits and full customization.
One more example of how an initially AI-generated app in @clickly.app receives final touches. Visual editor lets you make precise, instant changes while previewing the app in real time on a mobile phone. No builds, no app restart, and even no hot module reload. Live preview.
When designing a mobile app, it's essential to see immediately what you are getting. AI can generate an initial version, but the final touches are still up to you. In @clickly.app, you build using native components. And you can test your app in real time on multiple mobile phones simultaneously.
Comparing models Claude Opus 4.7 (on the left) and Sonnet 4.6 (on the right). Same prompt. Same skills. Same time window. The results are in the video. P.S. I'm building @clickly.app – the best visual builder for mobile apps that solves the problem of design handoffs.
Design handoff is painful. And have always been like that AI is trying to solve it by giving Claude Code to designers and turning them into "agentic" coders or, even worse, vibe-designers @clickly.app solves that and lets designers and engineers collaborate within the same tool.
Besides fast AI generation, @clickly.app actual superpower is precise visual edits. Everything is customizable. All the components are native. Every edit is instantaneous. All that allows building apps not only fast, but with precision. For now, Clickly is free and in open alpha.
When you make an app with AI, and it generates a first version, you have two options: 1. Vibe-coding. 2. Jump into code. @clickly.app offers the third option: 👉 AI-powered visual development with clean source code export for @reactnative.dev and @expo.dev Currently, it's free and in open alpha.
One more app one-shotted with AI in @clickly.app Clickly works perfectly for building MVPs fast while you stay in control. - real native components - full customizability, - real-time collaboration and preview on mobile phones - export of clean source code generated deterministically (without AI)
Claude Design was released yesterday, so I used the same prompt from the promo video to ask Opus 4.7 to make an app in @clickly.app Unlike Claude Design, it uses real native components. And exports reliable and clean source code for @expo.dev, generated deterministically (without AI).
ClicklyApp - combines the power of generative AI, visual edits, and native components. Allows designers and engineers to work in the same tool, eliminating hand-offs. Brings native components, not graphical primitives. Exports the source code and doesn't create vendor lock-in.
See what's already possible in @clickly.app - a visual dev tool that generates React Native / Expo code on the fly. Example of a simple sign-in with custom flow
What's new in @clickly.app Main highlights: - Data queries and mutations (better way for data loading) - Action flows now can have parameters and logic branching (if/else, try/catch, loops) - UI components for conditions 3-min overview: youtu.be/nbWcaI2ywkM

I'm not sure what I'm doing right, but these stats are definitely encouraging :)
What's new in @clickly.app in the last month Main highlights: - dozens of new nodes for data formulas - many smaller UX improvements Thank you to the growing number of users for all your feedback and suggestions. I'm happy building something valuable for other builders and creators.
I don't know how it works, but Junie by @jetbrains.com works better and faster for me than Claude Agent and Codex. And uses significantly fewer AI credits. 🤔
Based on a real story. Heavy yet with hope. If you want to better understand what was actually happening in the first month of the war, I highly recommend the movie Bucha. Available on Apple TV in the US, Canada and the UK.
Finally — it’s happening. After two years of negotiations, the film “Bucha” premieres on Apple TV and Amazon Prime Video across the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. on February 24, the 4th anniversary of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. ...
Top 5 posts about AI: 1️⃣ "Software developers are doomed! I vibe-coded this cool app over the weekend. But I can't show it to you; it needs some adjustments."
5 similarities between AI hype and socialism/communism. 1. Both promise utopia "just in 5 years". 2. Both overpromise and underdeliver. 3. Both rely on centralized decision-making. 4. Both attractive in theory yet ugly in practice. ⬇️
Stack Overflow: traffic - down 📉 revenue - up 📈 Tailwind CSS: traffic - up📈 revenue - down📉 Somebody knows how to do business.
@clickly.app now has 100+ UI components to build from. - Including 70+ React Native Paper (by @callstack.com) UI components that implement the latest Material Design 3. - 20+ basic components from the RN core set. - And some others. Of course, all components work natively on Android, iOS and web.
React Native apps are winning in monetization in almost all categories among different technologies (both native and cross-platform). ✅ Download to paid ✅ Revenue per install ✅ LTV per customer And only falling behind in "Year 1 retention" (on par with native).
