v0 — Vercel's AI app builder optimised for Next.js, shadcn/ui, and Vercel deployment. Best-in-class Next.js App Router code generation with idiomatic patterns.
About v0
v0 is Vercel's AI app builder, optimized for Next.js, shadcn/ui, and deployment to Vercel.
Its edge is a tight, idiomatic stack: Next.js App Router code generation with shadcn/ui components, accessible markup by default, and direct deploy to Vercel.
It's for developers building on the Vercel stack who want generated code that matches its conventions. Two notes: it's strongly opinionated toward Vercel, Next.js, and shadcn/ui — less suited if you want a different stack — and premium messages on the paid plan are metered per month.
It's the Vercel-native, Next.js-first builder next to the stack-agnostic Bolt.new.
