What is Codev?
Codev is an AI-powered platform designed to accelerate web application development by converting natural language descriptions into complete, production-ready full-stack Next.js applications. It targets both experienced developers looking to rapidly prototype or build, and non-developers who want to bring their app ideas to life without extensive coding knowledge. Codev provides a streamlined process for generating, customizing, and deploying web applications, offering full ownership of the generated code and integration with modern web technologies like Supabase.
How to use Codev
Users can get started for free by describing their app idea in natural language. Codev's AI will then generate a full-stack Next.js application. Users can choose their preferred AI model (Claude, GPT, Gemini) and deploy the generated application to a custom domain with one-click setup and automatic SSL. The full source code is available for download and customization.

FAQ from Codev
What is Codev?
Codev is an AI-powered platform that converts text descriptions into full-stack Next.js web applications. It helps developers and non-developers alike bring their app ideas to life quickly and efficiently.
How does it work?
Simply describe your app idea in natural language, and Codev will generate a complete Next.js application with all necessary components, styling, and functionality. The AI understands your requirements and creates production-ready code.
What technologies does Codev use?
Codev generates applications using Next.js (a popular React framework), and Supabase (a PostgreSQL database with real-time data sync). The apps are built with best practices and are fully customizable after generation.
Do I need coding experience to use Codev?
While coding experience is helpful, it's not required. Codev is designed to be accessible to both developers and non-developers.
Can I customize the generated code?
Yes! The code generated by Codev is yours to modify and customize. You have full access to the source code and take it with you when you leave Codev.
What are the limitations?
Codev can generate full-stack applications with CRUD operations and database integration. However, more complex applications like web crawlers or apps that need to handle high traffic and scalability are not currently supported. Also, we are currently only supporting web applications, so mobile apps and Chrome extensions are out of scope.
Can I deploy and go to production without any developer?
While Codev generates production-ready code, we highly recommend having a developer review the application before going to production, particularly to address security considerations and scaling requirements.
Can I make mobile apps (iOS/Android)?
No, Codev only supports making web apps at this time.
