Guides for shipping AI-built apps.
Step-by-step how-tos, honest comparisons, and concept explainers. Start here.
What is MCP (Model Context Protocol)?
Model Context Protocol lets an AI assistant call external tools — deploy an app, query a database, hit an API — through a single open standard. The clearest primer on what it is, why it exists, and what you can do with it.
What is vibe coding?
Vibe coding means writing software by describing what you want and letting the AI write the code — without reading or reviewing most of what it produces. What it is, where the term came from, and when it actually works.
What is an AI app builder?
An AI app builder generates real working apps from plain-English descriptions. The definitional piece: what they are, how they work under the hood, how they differ from no-code and from writing code, and the main categories in 2026.
What is bring-your-own-AI (BYO-AI) hosting?
BYO-AI platforms unbundle "AI" from "hosting" — you bring Claude, Cursor, or ChatGPT, and the platform hosts what it builds. Why this model emerged, how it compares to bundled-AI tools, and who it's right for.
App vs website: which kind of AI builder do you need?
A website shows information. An app does things with user data. The tool you need depends on which side of that line you're on. How to figure out which kind of AI builder fits your project.
