The Architecture of Vibe Coding: Inside Bolt.new's Stack
In this conversation, Eric Simons, founder and CEO of StackBlitz, walks through one of the fastest and most consequential pivots in modern developer tooling. After nearly seven years building deep browser infrastructure and reaching roughly $700k in ARR, the company reoriented around Bolt, effectively defining the vibe-coding category and scaling past $15M ARR in a matter of months. We go under the hood of the WebAssembly-based architecture that lets Bolt run a full Node.js environment directly in the browser, delivering near-instant feedback and fundamentally different unit economics than cloud-hosted VMs. Eric explains the specific model breakthrough...
