v0.dev
v0.dev is an AI-powered UI tool developed by Vercel. It allows developers and designers to generate ready for production frontend code using simple text prompts or screenshots. v0.dev supports modern technologies such as React, Next.js, Tailwind CSS, and shadcn/ui.
The tool provides a live preview interface and outputs clean, customizable code ready for export. It’s beneficial for fast MVP development, prototyping, and speeding up frontend workflows. Unlike GitHub Copilot, v0.dev is purpose-built for UI and supports direct codebase export. It offers both free and paid plans with monthly AI credit limits.
While backend functionality is limited, v0.dev can create API stubs and basic integrations. Its contextual chat interface helps iterate quickly, though full project memory between sessions may be limited. Ideal for frontend teams seeking to streamline design-to-code processes with AI.
