DontCode Blog

Guides, comparisons, and tutorials for building businesses with no-code AI

Update

What's New — October 2, 2026

New Features

  • Learn DontCode with courses and certificates. Three learning tracks, Builder, How Apps Work, and Backend, now take you from idea to first build, through data, payments, users, and custom domains, with quizzes, a timed final exam, and a shareable certificate for your public profile. Lessons open guided tours that point to the right spot in your editor, and hands-on checks confirm you really did the task in your own project.
  • Your app now protects what it already does. Every project gets a Features page that lists what is planned, being built, and built, along with plain-language checks describing what each feature guarantees. Insight warns you before a change would break one of those guarantees, a build that fails its checks is marked "Not shipped" with an explanation and an email, and the live preview tells you when a build is being checked and when a new version is ready to reload.
  • Real photos and video in your app. Layouts can now include hero images, hero videos, and item pictures from your asset library, and the design directions you are offered when describing a new app come with licensed photos that fit your product. Ask Insight to add matching photos and it will.
  • A new template picker. The Templates section now opens a popup where you can browse templates, see details like colors and fonts, and tweak them before applying a style.

Improvements

  • Insight is smarter. Insight now builds and edits your app with a newer, more capable AI model.
  • A steadier start for new apps. The Create button now waits until Insight has drafted a plan with features, your chosen design direction is shown in the conversation and remembered, and a failed creation explains why. Insight also replies in the language you wrote in, even when your idea is about a Korean business.
  • Insight has a face. Wherever Insight is working for you, you now see its animated mascot, and buttons and menus across the app use icons that say what they do instead of a generic sparkle.

Bug Fixes

  • Small things that got in the way. The while-you-wait game no longer appears before your first build finishes, opens twice, or shows up for teammates who did not start the build. Opening the Database tab on a project without a database no longer shows an error, the credits counter and theme toggle look right again, and asking Insight to write your template's listing details now reliably fills them in.
Update

What's New — September 25, 2026

New Features

  • See how DontCode stacks up. New side-by-side comparison pages show how DontCode measures against Lovable, Bolt, Bubble, Imweb, and Cafe24, in English and Korean. You can reach them from the pricing page, the security scan, and the site footer.
  • Security scan reports land in your inbox. When a security scan you requested finishes, the full report is emailed to you automatically. The free scan is now also linked from the site footer.

Improvements

  • Watch weak foundations fail. The building demo on the "Why infrastructure" page now plays a full round on its own as you scroll to it, with an x-ray view, a live scoreboard of lost sales, leaks and downtime, and a Replay button. It also works properly on phones and when you resize your browser.
  • Smoother navigation. The desktop sidebar now expands in place to show a group's pages so your content stays visible, menus open with smooth animations, and on phones the bottom bar no longer hides side panels or the chat box.
  • Your profile shapes your setup. Profile questions are now written in plain language with a reason for each one, and your answers about team size and domain ownership preset your invite forms and domain setup to match.
  • Better games while you wait. Every minigame got a visual refresh: 2048 tiles glide and pop, bricks shatter and show your points in Breaker, cleared rows flash in Insight Blocks, Snake draws a smooth connected snake, and the birds in Run finally look like birds.

Bug Fixes

  • A calmer project chat. Short conversations now sit right above the message box instead of floating to the top, suggested prompts stay out of the way while Insight is still replying, and planning a new app no longer shows the same reply twice before the Create app button appears.
  • Breakout no longer crashes on narrow screens. The minigame runs reliably on phones while you wait for a build.
Update

What's New — September 18, 2026

New Features

  • AI-suggested color palettes. Describe a mood, enter a brand color, or ask for variations on your current palette, and the AI proposes complete color schemes with readable text contrast guaranteed. Apply one with a click, undo in one step, and the theme editor now shows every color your project defines, with derived colors updating automatically and custom colors surviving a preset switch.
  • Email when your build is ready. If you step away from the editor while a build runs, you get one email when it finishes, with a card showing the project's name, screenshot, and a link straight to it. You will not be emailed when you are already watching it land.
  • Free security check for any AI-built app. Paste the address of an app you built with any AI app maker and get a deep scan of where it is exposed, with a shareable report and the full results sent to your inbox. An interactive demo lets you send customers, a storm, or a hacker at two apps and watch which one holds up.
  • Undo and redo in the app editor. Cmd/Ctrl+Z and Shift+Z now step backward and forward through your changes, whether you are working in the editing panel or the preview.
  • Drafts you can actually manage. The home page now switches between My Projects, Community, and Drafts with tabs above the grid, and drafts appear as a full searchable grid with a preview of each one's design. Starting a new idea confirms first and tells you where your current draft is saved, and a new Switch drafts option lets you jump between open drafts without losing your latest edits.

Improvements

  • A clearer project editor. The sidebar is now a rail of section icons that open their pages on click, with a separate panel for each page's chat, help, or sub-navigation, so navigation and tools no longer compete for space. The database section is split into Schema, Data, and Enums pages, the design panel groups templates, colors, typography, corners, and feel together, and the Users, Team, Design, Growth, and Deploy pages share one consistent layout.
  • The editor works properly on your phone. A labeled bottom bar moves you between sections, the page editor opens in the same side panel as everything else, pages run edge to edge, and nothing hides behind the navigation bar or the rounded corners of the screen anymore. Creating a new app no longer pulls you out of the chat while the plan is being written; the matching tab glows so you can switch over when you are ready.

Bug Fixes

  • Email links and team invites now land where they should. Links in emails open pages that exist, in your own language, and the sign-in button on a team invite page opens the sign-in dialog so you can accept without hunting for another way in.
Update

What's New — September 11, 2026

New Features

  • See exactly where you stand on your plan. Every project now has a Usage page, one click away in the side navigation, showing how much of each limit you have used, which ones are close to running out, and when requests were slowed down. You can step back through past billing periods, see every request budget for each service, and ask Insight directly whether you are near a limit.
  • Change your app's fonts by asking. Ask Insight to swap your app's fonts during a build and the change shows up in your Design panel right away. Project setup now offers more font pairings with distinct personalities, and every design preset comes with a pairing that matches its look.

Improvements

  • Pick a design faster when starting a project. Design options now appear as ready-made layouts filled with your own copy, and you can browse the whole template gallery to choose one. Small refinements by chat, like renaming a button or adjusting colors, update instantly without rebuilding the preview.
  • Feature requests in chat are easier to follow. Each request now appears as a compact card with a plain-language title the moment you ask, shows a gentle shimmer while Insight is working, and links straight to the build once it is applied. Builds also appear in your Builds list with a readable title right away, and you can open a link to a single build and jump back to the full list in one click.
  • Korean text looks right everywhere. New apps default to a cleaner Korean-friendly font, design previews render Korean in a matching font instead of the system fallback, and font names and type samples in the Design panel now display in the actual font.
  • Every color palette stays readable. All built-in palettes now have legible text on every surface, and design previews avoid made-up statistics so they look less generic.

Bug Fixes

  • Plan changes take effect immediately. Changing your plan now applies the new request limits to your app right away instead of waiting for them to catch up.
  • Manually added users count toward your limit. Adding users to your app by hand now correctly counts against your plan's user limit instead of letting you exceed it unnoticed.
Update

What's New — September 4, 2026

New Features

  • Play while you build. While Insight builds your app, you can play eight minigames (Insight Bird, Insight Run, Snake, Blocks, Breaker, 2048, Pairs, Stack) and shuffle between them instead of watching a progress bar.

Improvements

  • Your projects come first. Once you have projects, your home page shows them at the top instead of marketing sections.
  • Shorter, plainer text everywhere. Pages across the app and the public docs now use simple language and skip the long explanations and insider jargon.
  • Insight is smarter about sign-in requests. Ask for a forgot-password page and it tells you password recovery is already built into your sign-in form instead of building a duplicate; it also handles requests to skip login or go without accounts sensibly.

Bug Fixes

  • Suggested next steps are back. The next-step suggestions and idea chips in the chat appear reliably again instead of silently failing.
Update

What's New — August 28, 2026

New Features

  • The editor now adapts to you. The first time you open a project, two quick optional questions let the editor tailor itself: your project menu opens with a "Start here" group of the pages most useful to you, the AI explains things at your experience level, and the dashboard surfaces templates that fit the kind of app you are building. You can review, change, or remove every answer from your profile page at any time.
  • See errors from your live app. Analytics now shows the errors your published app has reported, with search, time windows, and details for each one, kept for 30 days.

Improvements

  • Backend Projects on every plan. Bring-your-own-code projects no longer require a paid plan, so anyone can connect their own code to DontCode's services.
  • One place for your app's look and feel. The Design System editor now lives in Branding with colors and styles together, a new slider-based color picker, and font changes that go straight to your live app. The save button now reads "Save to live app" so there is no guessing, and the email brand color picker can pull your theme colors in directly.
  • A sharper AI assistant. Pro and Enterprise plans now get a more capable model in the app-building and idea chats, and the assistant across all plans answers faster with guidance that matches what you actually see in the editor.
  • Clearer credits and plan limits. AI requests are now billed at the rate of the model that actually handled them, so lighter tasks cost fewer credits. The assets page shows your storage usage against your plan, and the scheduled jobs page shows how many jobs your plan includes.

Bug Fixes

  • Chat scrolls all the way down. Conversations now scroll to the end of the latest reply, so the last lines are no longer hidden behind the message box.
  • Sent emails display correctly. Expanding an email in your sent-email log now shows the full message body with proper formatting, including in dark mode.
Update

What's New — August 21, 2026

New Features

  • Bot protection for your app's sign-in. You can now require a bot check (CAPTCHA) on your deployed app's sign in, sign up, and password reset screens to block automated abuse. Flip one switch in your Auth settings and the platform handles everything; no accounts, keys, or setup needed, and it stays off until you turn it on.
  • Branded customer emails. You can now customize the emails your app sends to its customers, like payment receipts, subscription notices, and refund confirmations. The new Email tab in your project's Branding section lets you set a sender name, logo, brand color, footer line, and reply-to address, complete with a live preview. Available as a plan upgrade; without it, emails still send using your project name and the default design.
  • Automatic outage notices on your live app. If our platform ever has a confirmed outage, your live app can now show visitors a short, professional notice with a link to a public status page. It only appears during a real outage, matches your app's design, and can be turned off any time from the Deploy page with changes taking effect in about a minute.

Improvements

  • AI actions now cost fewer credits. We lowered the pricing rate applied to AI usage from 20% to 5%, so the same work uses up less of your credit balance.
  • Billing emails always reach your customers. Receipts and payment notices sent to your app's customers no longer count against your project's regular email sending limits, so they always go out.
  • A chat box that stays with you. The Insight chat input now stays in view while you scroll, so you can send your next message without hunting for the composer.
  • A more detailed status page. Our public status page now gives a more nuanced picture of platform health, so you can see exactly what's running smoothly at a glance.
  • Never lose an idea you're exploring. When you're sketching out a new app idea without being signed in, you'll now see a friendly reminder at the design step that signing in saves your idea to your account, so you can pick it up later right where you left off.
  • Clearer wording everywhere. We polished button labels and instructions across the app, including account, billing, project setup, and sign-in pages, so directions are easier to follow in both English and Korean.
  • Times that match your clock. Blog posts and the public status page now show dates and times in Korean Standard Time, with a compact UTC reference on incident timelines so readers anywhere in the world can follow along.
  • More helpful activity logs. The activity log for auth settings now tells you exactly which setting was changed, instead of showing a generic entry.

Bug Fixes

  • Insight points you to the right place. Asking Insight about password rules or MFA now takes you directly to the correct settings page.
Update

What's New — August 14, 2026

New Features

  • Follow your build step by step. Build progress now shows as a live checklist of plan steps: the current step expands automatically to reveal each action as it happens, finished steps tuck away neatly, and the list uses more of your screen so you can follow along without extra scrolling.
  • Featured posts on creator profiles. Creator profile pages now spotlight featured blog posts in a special card above templates, complete with a "Featured" badge, category, and publish date, available in both English and Korean.

Improvements

  • Faster AI responses. Chat with the AI now starts responding sooner, since the assistant remembers its setup between messages instead of starting from scratch each time.
  • Stronger sign-in protection. On top of existing per-account limits, your apps now automatically block suspicious sign-in attempts by source and detect attacks spread across many accounts, and our public security documentation has been updated so you can share an accurate picture with clients and reviewers.
  • Easier design picking. You can now choose a design direction by clicking anywhere on its card, cards highlight on hover so it's clear what you're about to pick, and switching to a different direction after applying one is a clear, obvious button.
  • Tell your tabs apart. Browser tabs now show your project's name and the section you're in, and new apps update the tab live as soon as they have a name, making it much easier to juggle several ideas at once.
  • Clearer integration docs. Feature documentation now explains integrations in plain language, including a friendlier description of how your saved service keys stay encrypted and how outside services work in your live app.
  • A cleaner homepage on phones. The mobile homepage now shows a couple of quick prompt ideas instead of a crowded row of suggestions, for a calmer first impression.
  • A more helpful footer. The site footer has been redesigned with links organized into Product, Resources, and Legal sections, including a quick link to check DontCode's live service status at any time.
  • A fresh look for checkboxes. Checkboxes across the app have a new design that matches the rest of the interface and is easier to click.
  • Nicer reading experience. Blog posts and patch notes now display with cleaner formatting: lists, quotes, and paragraph spacing all render properly.

Bug Fixes

  • Thumbnails stay current. Project thumbnails now always show your latest screenshot; older preview images no longer stick around after your app is re-captured.
  • Smoother homepage browsing. The idea box on the homepage no longer shifts the page around as its example text animates.
  • More reliable account setup. Turning on user accounts for your project now works smoothly even if you enable it more than once.
  • Legal pages fit every screen. The privacy policy page no longer has text or labels overflowing on smaller screens.
Update

What's New — August 7, 2026

New Features

  • Move from mobile to web without logging in again. You can now move from the DontCode mobile app to the web and stay securely signed in, with no need to log in again.
  • Safer sign-in links. Added extra safeguards so sign-in links can only be used once and always land you on a safe DontCode page.
  • A polished project Todo List. The feature checkboxes have a new, cleaner look, and the "build" action bar now floats smoothly over the list as you scroll, so the button stays reachable without covering the first items.
  • A public platform status page. You can now check the live health of the DontCode platform on our new public status page, which shows the current status of core services like sign-ins, payments, file storage, and notifications in both English and Korean.
  • Your plan and design carry into your project. When you create a new project, your project plan and design choices now carry over into the finished project instead of being lost along the way.
  • From confirmed idea to working app in one step. Confirming your idea in the new create flow now builds your real project right away, so you go from concept to working app in one smooth step.
  • A new Design System page. View and fine-tune your project's look and feel, including colors, typography, and overall style, all in one place.
  • A redesigned create flow. Creating a new app now happens at its own dedicated page, with tabs for chat, plan, design, and files all in one place.
  • Insight knows your plan. Insight also understands the plan you built when creating your app, and can guide you to update it anytime so new features match your product's direction.
  • A calmer celebration. The celebration animation when your new project is created now plays at a more relaxed pace, giving you a moment to enjoy the success before jumping into the editor.

Improvements

  • Uptime history you can share. The status page includes uptime for the last 90 days and a history of past incidents, and it is public so you can share it with your own users if something ever goes wrong.
  • Better in-editor warnings. Warning banners inside the project editor now do a better job of alerting you when a platform service that your app relies on is having issues.
  • Outage or slowdown, at a glance. The status page now tells the difference between a full outage and a slowdown, so you can see at a glance whether a service is down or just running slower than usual.
  • Richer incident history. Incident history now includes slowdowns alongside outages, and each incident can show an update from the team explaining what happened.
  • Clearer AI task names. Your AI tasks now have clearer, friendlier names based on what you asked for, so it is easier to see what Insight is working on at a glance.
  • No more blank task list. While Insight is getting started on a request, you now see a helpful status message like "Reading your request and planning the first steps" instead of a blank task list.
  • "Live app", not "preview". The app preview panel is now called "Live app" to make it clear you are looking at your real, running application, not a mockup.
  • Idea drafts save themselves. Your app idea drafts are now saved automatically as you work, so you can leave the create flow and pick up right where you left off.
  • Drafts follow you after sign-in. Drafts you start before logging in are kept and linked to your account when you sign in, so nothing you wrote gets lost.
  • Project drafts on every device. Your project drafts are now saved automatically as you go, so you can leave and pick up right where you left off on any device.
  • Templates carry their style. Starting from a template now carries its look and feel straight into the design tab, giving you a head start you can customize with your own colors, fonts, and style.
  • Home page drafts from your account. Your saved app drafts on the home page now come from your account, so you can pick up an unfinished idea on any device instead of only the one you started on.
  • Pick up drafts where you left off. Clicking a draft takes you right back into the conversation where you left off, and dismissing a draft now removes it for good.
  • Ask Insight about your design system. Insight can now answer questions about your app's design system, so you can ask it how to change colors, fonts, corner rounding, or the overall feel and get pointed to the right place.
  • Honest saving status in chat. If a plan or style preference update ever fails to go through, the chat now clearly shows that it did not save and that Insight will retry, instead of showing a misleading checkmark.
  • A refreshed status page design. The status page interface got a visual polish so it is easier to read at a glance.

Bug Fixes

  • Smoother scrolling. Fixed scrolling glitches where some pages showed two scrollbars at once, making scrolling feel smoother and more predictable.
  • Your plan shows up right away. Fixed an issue where the plan panel could stay empty during the first response when creating a new app, even though the chat said your plan was updated.
Update

What's New — August 1, 2026

New Features

  • Design your app before it's even built. The project creation flow now includes a Design section where you can shape your app's look while you chat through your idea: pick design directions, fine-tune your primary, background, text, and accent colors, and watch template previews update live as you make changes. Your design draft is saved safely on your device and carries straight into the project editor when your app is created.
  • Refine your design in plain language. While previewing a design during project creation, you can now chat with Insight to request changes like "make the hero full width" and watch the preview rebuild live. You can also expand the preview into a larger view with zoom, pan, and keyboard shortcuts to inspect every detail up close.
  • Start from a community template. When creating a new project, you can now pick from templates made by fellow DontCoders, shown right alongside the AI's suggested design directions, and apply one to your project with a single click.
  • Add elements by hand in the visual editor. A new insert palette lets you place ready-made building blocks like buttons, text, images, and sections exactly where you want them, and Insight understands anything you add so you can immediately ask it to build on your work.
  • The DontCode Desktop app is here. Download it now for macOS, Windows, and Linux, free and with no account needed. The download page highlights the best version for your device, and a new page previews our upcoming mobile app too.
  • Keep your app on the latest engine. The editor now tells you when a newer version of the DontCode app engine is available so you can update with one click, and every deployed project automatically receives the latest improvements once a month, even if you haven't touched it recently.
  • A new home for everything billing. Your plan, credit purchases, usage, and payment history now live together in one Billing hub with easy tabs, including a new Usage tab that shows exactly how your credits are being spent.
  • Learn the editor with guided tutorials. Step-by-step walkthroughs now highlight the editor's tools and show you how to use them, available in both English and Korean, and the editor remembers which ones you've already completed.
  • Delete your account on your terms. You can now delete your DontCode account right from your account page, with a 30-day grace period, a clear banner showing the exact date, and one-click cancellation if you change your mind.
  • Email updates that keep you in the loop. You now receive email receipts for credit purchases, subscription renewal notices, team invitations, invite acceptance notices, and confirmations and reminders throughout the account deletion process.

Improvements

  • Edit comfortably on your phone. A new bottom panel slides up when you tap an element so you can adjust it without losing sight of your app, and the design toolbar gained a layers view for finding nested elements plus the option to tuck it away for a clear view.
  • One login for all of DontCode. Signing in once now keeps you signed in across all DontCode sites, and your light or dark mode choice follows you everywhere with no flash of the wrong colors when pages load.
  • Manage your design system anytime. The Branding Blueprint page now lets you view and edit your project's saved design system, with changes saved automatically and safe recovery options if edits from another session conflict with yours.
  • A smoother start to every project. The creation screen greets you by name, keeps optional tabs tucked away until you need them, saves any files you attach straight into your new project, and shows your typed project name in your drafts list, where search now matches names too.
  • Share your security story with confidence. A new Trust & Compliance section in our docs answers common questions about where your data is stored and who our service providers are; perfect for security reviewers and procurement teams. The Templates tab is now called Community, reflecting the real sites built and shared by fellow DontCoders.

Bug Fixes

  • Your design refinements now stick. Fixed issues where template changes made during project setup could disappear, community template selections didn't apply correctly, or the preview's loading overlay could get stuck after an interruption.
  • Pick up where you left off. Fixed an issue where returning to an in-progress idea chat after a refresh could cause the conversation to stop responding.
  • Simultaneous edits are safe. If two people save design changes at the same time, DontCode now catches the overlap instead of silently losing one person's work.
  • Smoother sign-ins for long-time users. Fixed an issue where outdated login sessions could cause unexpected logouts; affected accounts are cleaned up automatically on their next visit.
  • Clearer page-to-page feedback. The loading bar at the top of the screen now appears reliably when you move between pages.
Update

What's New — July 17, 2026

New Features

  • Never lose a build to low balance. Running out of AI usage mid-project no longer means losing work. Your build simply pauses with a friendly heads-up, and once you top up, it picks back up right where it left off, automatically or with one click.
  • Every build finishes, guaranteed. Once a build starts, we always complete it in full, even if it takes your balance below zero. You just settle up before your next build. The credits page now explains this promise clearly.
  • Live status banner on project pages. If we're experiencing a known issue, you'll now see a banner right inside your project so you're never left guessing.

Improvements

  • Know before you build. The idea chat and project editor now warn you early when your balance is running low, so you're never caught off guard mid-build.
  • Smarter answers from Insight. Your in-project assistant now gives clearer, more complete answers about paused builds and how to resume them, the Visual Editor's selection tools, the status banner, and the built-in store for temporary app data.
  • Polished warning messages. Alerts across the platform got a visual refresh, making them easier to read and act on.

Bug Fixes

  • Email viewer stays open. Fixed an issue where the email viewer would repeatedly close itself while you were reading.
Update

What's New — July 10, 2026

Improvements

  • Easier reading on mobile. Text across the app is now larger and better tuned for phones, so your projects are comfortable to read and edit on the go.
  • Refined visual editing tools. The manual editing controls got a round of polish, making it smoother to fine-tune your app by hand.
  • More reliable Korean bank details. Korean bank account numbers are now validated correctly when you set up payouts, so verification goes through without guesswork.
  • Clearer payment information. We tidied up our payment details so what you read about how DontCode handles payments is accurate and easy to follow.
Update

What's New — July 3, 2026

New Features

  • Build live, real-time features into your apps. Add chat, "who's online" lists, typing indicators, and instant notifications to your projects with zero setup. Everything updates live for your users, and DontCode handles all of it for you.
  • Fast temporary storage, built right in. Your apps now include speedy short-term storage for things like login sessions, one-time codes, and game lobbies. It cleans itself up automatically, so there's nothing for you to manage.

Improvements

  • Watch your project come to life. Creating a project from a template now shows a live progress screen, so you can see your workspace being set up step by step: from your first screens to your live preview.
  • A proper welcome for your new project. When setup finishes, you're greeted with a celebration screen and a clear "Go to your project" button instead of an abrupt redirect.
  • Snappier celebrations. The rainbow celebration when your new project is ready now appears instantly and blooms in smoothly, no more waiting for it to build up.
Update

What's New — June 26, 2026

New Features

  • Chat with your live preview. Insight can now see exactly what you're looking at in the App editor, so you can point, ask, and iterate without explaining what's on screen.
  • Visual tweaks, applied by chat. Ask Insight to nudge a color, resize an element, or adjust spacing, and watch it happen right in your preview.
  • Save everything in one ask. When your pending visual edits are ready, tell Insight to save them and your project updates in one go.

Improvements

  • Undo just one change, by name. Pending visual edits are now organized one-per-property-per-element with clear labels, so you can revert a single tweak instead of starting over.
  • "Builds" replaces "Job History." The page where you review everything that's been generated for your project now has a name that actually tells you what it does.
Update

What's New — June 19, 2026

New Features

  • A dedicated Editor view, with Chat one click away. Opening a page now drops you straight into the Editor (page picker, undo and redo, and the property panel) instead of jumping into chat. Switch to the Chat tab whenever you want to talk to Insight about your edits, and your live preview and unsaved changes stay intact as you move back and forth.
  • Bookmark and share any page in your app. You can now link directly to a specific page inside your project's app editor, and the browser back button takes you to the page list instead of all the way out to the dashboard.
  • Delete your own chat messages. Clear both your message and the assistant's reply in one step to tidy up a conversation as you go. Removed messages stay out of your view but remain available to support if you ever need help.

Improvements

  • A clearer to-do list for your build plan. The project planning page is now "Job History" with a cleaner layout and clearer status groups (Planned, Requested, Built, Abandoned), so you can see what was built and what's coming next at a glance. Insight stays in sync with this list when it answers questions or makes suggestions.
  • Auth settings stay stable before setup. Sign-in options, invites, sessions, audit log, and analytics now show a clear "auth not set up yet" message instead of erroring out when a project has not enabled authentication yet.
  • Live preview follows you as you navigate. The editor keeps your project loaded when you switch between the app overview and individual pages, so you no longer see the "Analyzing" loader every time, and page URLs stay in sync for easy sharing.
  • Smoother page browsing. Searching and switching between grid and list views in the page browser feels snappier and stays out of the way while you chat about a page.
  • A polished pricing page. Refined toggle buttons and a softer plan comparison table make the pricing page easier to read.
  • A clearer billing redirect. When a backend project needs a higher plan, the billing page now explains why you were sent there and which plan you need.
  • Meet the team. Our About Us page welcomes two new faces, Chanhee (Product Designer) and Jack (Agent Privacy Engineer), with a refreshed layout, an intro video, and a smoother reveal.
  • Easier-to-read help docs. Our documentation is now written for non-technical founders, with cleaner formatting and less jargon. We also tidied up the privacy policy so it reads more naturally.

Bug Fixes

  • No more flickering between tabs. Fixed a loop where the app editor could get stuck flickering when switching between the Pages and Chat tabs.
  • Apply and Discard always resolve. Dismissing a suggestion card no longer breaks the conversation, and the Apply and Discard buttons on older cards reliably resolve even after you keep chatting past them.
  • Dynamic pages preview correctly. Pages with dynamic parts in their URL (like a blog post or event detail) now preview with real sample data instead of showing a "not found" error.
Update

What's New — June 12, 2026

New Features

  • Attach files to your AI chat. Share designs, documents, screenshots, and even website snapshots right in your project chat. Say "match this design" or "copy this page" and the builder works from your exact files instead of a description alone. Attachments show a live preview and stay private to your conversation.
  • Uploads that keep up with you. Files now upload in the background while you finish typing your message, and removing an attachment before sending cleans itself up automatically.
  • A clearer Account page. Your profile now has dedicated Subscription and Billing cards, so you can see your current plan, renewal date, credit balance (monthly and purchased), and recent transactions at a glance, with quick links to buy credits or manage payment methods.
  • GitHub sign-in for your apps. You can now offer GitHub as a login option to your app's users, alongside Google and Kakao, with new step-by-step guides that walk you through connecting each provider.
  • Switch pages without leaving the canvas. Pick which page you're editing right from the visual editor, and your pages list now appears instantly instead of waiting for analysis to finish.
  • A new color picker in the appearance panel. Fine-tune your app's theme with swatches that show your project's actual brand colors and correctly highlight which one an element is using.
  • High scores that stick. Your best runs in the built-in mini games (Snake, Tetris, Flappy Birds, and Infinite Runner) are now saved between visits.

Improvements

  • Korean, everywhere. Documentation, feature guides, billing pages, the project editor, navigation, and the footer now display fully in Korean, with polished wording throughout for a more natural reading experience.
  • Clearer billing. Your plan is now shown as a membership with included monthly AI usage, while credits are a separate one-time purchase for when you need extra. Auto purchase can top up credits automatically once you have a card on file, and transaction history clearly labels what came with your plan.
  • A smarter, smoother AI chat. Incomplete build requests are now caught before you click Apply, your typed answers to clarifying questions no longer disappear, and responses read more naturally. The chat panel also looks and works the same across every project page.
  • Better blog sharing. Patch notes now appear in Korean when browsing in Korean, shared links show a polished preview card in the matching language, and switching languages keeps your place on the page.
  • Stronger privacy commitments. Our privacy policy now names our Privacy Officer with direct contact details, includes clearer information on how your data is handled under Korea's Personal Information Protection Act, and adds a copyright takedown policy so you know exactly how to report infringing content.

Bug Fixes

  • File attachments are now rock solid. Fixed uploads failing with larger images, files with spaces in their names disappearing from chat, the screen freezing during attachment, and messages getting lost when sent mid-upload. Everything now goes through reliably.
  • Blueprint plan edits now save and apply as expected.
  • Clearer error messages. If a message is ever too large to send, you'll see a clear explanation instead of a generic error.
Update

What's New — June 5, 2026

New Features

  • Project Plan, your app's living roadmap. A new page where you can set your project name and description, and see every feature you've imagined grouped by status: Planned, Built, or Abandoned. Pick any planned features from the list and hit "Send it" to queue them all up for building at once, no need to describe them again in chat. The roadmap updates itself after each build, so it always reflects what's actually in your app.
  • A smarter way to build integrations. Instead of manually wiring up technical connections, just describe what each function should do in plain language and the AI generates the code automatically. One unified flow handles both sending data out (like calling a CRM) and receiving data in (webhooks from tools like WebinarJam or Deadline Funnel), with credentials safely encrypted. Edit the intent anytime and the code regenerates on your next deploy.
  • Brand-new analytics dashboard for your deployed app. See who's signing up, where they're coming from, what devices they use, and which suspicious visits got blocked, all organized into clean Overview and Traffic tabs. The new "Explore" view lets you drill into traffic over 7, 30, or 90 day windows and find your most-hit pages.
  • One-toggle Two-Step Verification for your app's users. Flip a single switch and your sign-in and sign-up flows will automatically offer your users an authenticator app at login (with a skip option) and challenge them on future logins. Enterprise-grade security, zero setup.
  • Recipes built into Insight. Your in-app AI assistant now knows a library of ready-to-use automations: weekly reports, abandoned checkout recovery, new signup welcome sequences, churn nudges, daily customer digests, investor update emails, and more. Ask for them by name and get a working setup faster. Plus, a new browsable docs catalog organized by category in both English and Korean makes it easier to discover what DontCode can build for you.
  • Describe your own starter direction. When picking a style for a new project, you can now describe your direction in plain words or drop in a reference link instead of being limited to the suggested options. Changed your mind? A new "Choose again" button lets you back out without losing your chat.

Improvements

  • A cleaner project sidebar. Sections are now grouped into Design, Data, People, Growth, and Deploy so you can find what you need at a glance. "Publish" is now labeled "Publish Template" so it's clearer what the action does.
  • Tidier page list. Pages with dynamic URL parts (like /events/[id] or /blog/[slug]) are now tucked into a separate section so your main view stays focused on the pages you can actually preview. A new toggle reveals them on demand with a clear explanation of why they can't be previewed directly.
  • Smarter AI chat suggestions. When you need inspiration, the AI now offers two tightly focused, high-quality prompt ideas pulled from the recipe library, things like "weekly admin report" or "60-second onboarding tour", in both English and Korean.
  • Friendlier error messages from Insight. When something goes wrong, you'll see a clear, calm explanation in your language instead of a scary red error. Failed database changes tell you exactly what happened, reassure you that your data is safe, and suggest how to retry.
  • More accurate answers from Insight. It got smarter at looking up information about your project, so its answers about your data and analytics are more reliable.
  • Longer-lasting live previews. Your preview now stays connected far longer while you work, so you won't randomly lose live updates just because you stepped away for a few minutes. If the connection ever does drop, you'll see a clear warning with a one-click refresh button instead of a silently stale preview.
  • A focused activity feed. Automatic background fixes no longer clutter your task list as "Fix Build Error," keeping the feed focused on the work that actually matters to you.
  • Polished docs and help content. Help pages now show friendly directions like "Inside the editor, head to Auth → OAuth" instead of raw technical paths. Our authentication security guide got a major content upgrade with a new visual scorecard so you can see how your app's login protection stacks up. And links to our setup guides now show richer preview cards when shared on Twitter, LinkedIn, Slack, and KakaoTalk.
  • Small visual polish. Cleaner pencil icons in the project setup flow, suggestion chips that pop in the brand color, and a tidier analytics page header.

Bug Fixes

  • Reliable screenshots and live-page previews. Capturing multiple screenshots at once no longer overwhelms the system, pages with chat widgets or live feeds no longer hang, and chatting with the AI about several website references in one conversation now works smoothly.
  • Korean, Japanese, and Chinese text now renders correctly in screenshots and previews instead of showing empty boxes where characters should be.
  • Friendly messages when a site blocks our screenshot tool. Instead of a confusing failure, you'll see a clear explanation (like "too many requests") so you know what happened.
  • Fixed broken social preview images when DontCode pages are shared on social media and messaging apps, so links now show the proper branded image.
  • Up-to-date OAuth setup instructions. Outdated subdomain references in setup guides for Google, Apple, and other login providers have been corrected to match what you'll actually see.
Update

What's New — May 29, 2026

New Features

  • Connect your own custom domain. Bring your domain to DontCode with a simple paste-and-go flow that handles common mistakes automatically, then follow clear DNS setup instructions and hit "Verify Now" to go live.
  • Integrations marketplace. Connect your app to popular third-party services in one click, or hook up any custom HTTP service by name so your app and AI assistant can call it intelligently when building features.
  • Securely store credentials and test calls. Save credentials safely, define named actions (like "createContact") that your AI can use, and test calls right from the editor before going live.
  • Inbound webhooks from outside tools. Receive webhooks from services like WebinarJam and Deadline Funnel with a dedicated URL and signing secret, so external tools can trigger actions inside your app.
  • Two-factor authentication for your app's users. Your users can now secure their accounts with authenticator apps like Authy, 1Password, or Google Authenticator, and get backup recovery codes in case they lose their device.
  • Automatic brute-force protection. Accounts are locked after repeated failed sign-in attempts, and resetting a password instantly signs out anyone using stolen credentials.
  • Public documentation hub. Browse a new public docs site with step-by-step guides for adding social login providers like Google and Kakao, plus a shareable security write-up explaining how DontCode protects your users' passwords, perfect to send when customers or partners ask.
  • Security review scorecard. A clear public breakdown of how DontCode protects passwords, blocks brute-force attempts, supports two-factor login, and cuts off compromised sessions, plus what's coming next (IP-level protection and passkey support).

Improvements

  • Clearer sidebar names and order. "Team" is now "Project Team", "Payments" is now "App Income", and "Plan" is now "Subscription Tier". Branding, App Income, Team, and Analytics now sit closer to the top for quicker access.
  • Polished collapsible sidebar. Shrink and expand the sidebar on any screen size, with cleaner notification badges and smoother layout on smaller screens.
  • Friendlier custom domain setup. DNS records now show clearly labeled Name and Value fields, each with its own copy button, plus a helpful note explaining that some providers call these "Host" or "Points to".
  • Reliable domain verification across registrars. DNS values now use the short format most providers (GoDaddy, Namecheap, Cloudflare, Squarespace) expect, with the long form shown as a fallback so verification works no matter where you registered your domain.
  • Clearer custom domain errors. When verifying a domain, you'll see specific error messages right in the form so you know exactly what to fix.
  • Polished integration marketplace. Cards now show official logos for services like Mailchimp, ConvertKit, Resend, and Zapier instead of generic color dots, with logos carried through to each integration's details page.
  • Natural Korean copy. Refined Korean wording on the homepage and signup flow so the messaging reads more naturally and makes it clearer that your app goes live instantly the moment you describe your idea.
  • Tighter side panel layout. Action items now sit flush with their section header instead of leaving an awkward gap.
  • Snake and Insight Runner play instantly. Both games respond to keyboard controls the moment they load, and Snake now holds still until your first move on mobile so you have time to find the on-screen d-pad.
Update

What's New — May 22, 2026

New Features

  • Get paid straight to your Korean bank account. Sellers using DontCode's eCommerce and subscription features can now register a Korean bank account right from the project's Payments tab, with support for all major banks including KB, Shinhan, Kakao Bank, Toss Bank, and regional banks. Details are protected with end-to-end encryption, and a clear status shows whether your account is verified, pending, or needs attention before payouts go out.
  • Payouts keep flowing during account hiccups. A built-in one-month grace period keeps your buyer payments moving even if there is a temporary issue with your payout account, so your store never goes offline unexpectedly.
  • Sign up without leaving your idea. Sign-up now happens right inside the project idea chat, so you can keep refining your app idea without losing your place in a popup. The flow from "describe your idea" to "create your project" is smoother, with sign-up appearing inline exactly when you are ready to build.

Improvements

  • A full editing canvas the moment you open the Editor. The visual editor now opens directly into a full editing canvas instead of an empty placeholder, so you can start tweaking your app right away. The layout is cleaner, with the property panel and history controls making full use of the side panel and a bit more breathing room up top.
  • A preview header while you edit. The editor page now shows the preview header, so you always have context for the page you are working on.
  • Team pages that work on phones. The email invite form, link generator, and invite list now stack cleanly on small screens, and long invite links no longer push the copy button off-screen.
  • Safer subdomain changes. Swapping your project's subdomain now shows a clear, styled confirmation before making the change, so you will not accidentally break your old URL on the next deploy. When you have a custom subdomain set, a one-click option lets you revert to your default .dontcode.cafe address, with a confirmation step so nothing is lost by accident.
  • Friendlier custom domain setup. Refined DNS rules and guidance make connecting your own domain clearer and more reliable.
  • Mark emails as unread. You can now mark messages in your email log as unread to come back to them later.

Bug Fixes

  • Auth security settings load reliably. Fixed a bug that could leave the authentication security settings stuck on a loader.
Update

What's New — May 15, 2026

New Features

  • Get paid for your apps. Project owners can now save bank account details directly in the Payments section, so payouts from your app's sales come right to you. Built for Korean banks with proper account formatting and validation, encrypted storage, and a verification step before any money moves.
  • Watch your app come to life. Your project preview now shows a live coding animation and task progress while your app is being built for the first time, so you can see DontCode working instead of staring at a blank screen before your first deploy.
  • Email usage at a glance. A new banner on your email log shows today's usage, the last 30 days, and how much history you keep, with a clear Upgrade button when you hit your plan limit. Emails blocked by your limit are preserved so you can still see what would have been sent.

Improvements

  • Smoother KakaoPay checkout on mobile. Paying with KakaoPay on your phone now opens the Kakao app directly instead of showing an unscannable QR code, so checkout works cleanly from any device or narrow window. You'll also see a clear confirmation on your credits page once your payment goes through.
  • Clearer payment options. Checkout, plan, and pricing pages now clearly show KakaoPay as the available payment method, with a friendly note that credit card and bank transfer are coming soon, so you know more ways to pay are on the way.
  • Smarter task list scrolling. New tasks automatically follow into view as you work, but if you scroll up to read something, the list stays put instead of yanking you back down. Scroll near the bottom again and auto-follow picks right back up.
  • More reliable database setup. Setting up your project's database is now more resilient. If something goes wrong partway through, you can safely try again without getting stuck, and slower connections won't time out as quickly.
  • Read the full message in your email log. Expanding an email in the log now shows the full message body, not just the preview.
  • Tidier footer. Business information in the footer is now tucked behind a clean "View details" link, keeping pages uncluttered until you actually want to see company details. When you expand it, the page smoothly follows along so the new content stays in view.
Update

What's New — May 8, 2026

New Features

  • Google and Kakao social login for your projects. Connect your own Google and Kakao accounts so your users can sign in with one click instead of creating a new password. Step-by-step setup guides walk you through getting the right keys, with copy-ready redirect URLs for every domain on your project.
  • Manage subscription plans through the AI chat. Just describe the plans you want (free, pro, enterprise, etc.) and what each one includes, and the assistant sets it all up. It can also help you manage paying customers end-to-end: creating and updating plans, assigning users, and adjusting what each plan unlocks, all through natural conversation.
  • Share links with the AI assistant. Drop in a URL to inspiration, a competitor, or a reference doc and get suggestions grounded in what's actually on that page.
  • Ask the assistant questions from anywhere in the editor. It can now look up information about your project (auth, database, payments, branding, and more) from any page, not just the matching section.
  • Comprehensive Kakao login guide. A new walkthrough covers the full process of enabling email-based Kakao sign-in, including the free "Biz App" upgrade Kakao requires. Two clear paths are included: one for users with a Korean business registration number, and one for individual developers. Expanded troubleshooting covers the most common Kakao errors (KOE205, redirect mismatches, missing emails, and synthetic email fallbacks) with step-by-step fixes.

Improvements

  • Sign-in changes go live automatically. Adding or removing Google or Kakao sign-in now rolls out in a few seconds with no extra Deploy step. The setup screen also tells you exactly when your changes will be live.
  • A more complete view of your users. The user list in your project's auth panel now shows everyone who's signed up, including Google and Kakao users. Small icons next to each row show how they signed in, so you can see at a glance which login methods your customers prefer.
  • Enable or disable any team member's access. This now works for everyone, including users who signed in with Google or Kakao.
  • Smarter sign-in screen. The login screen remembers how you logged in last time, showing a small "last used" tag next to your email or chosen social login so you can pick up right where you left off.
  • Quick "Edit profile" shortcut on your own user profile page.
  • Live progress for AI lookups. When the assistant visits a website or takes a screenshot for you, you'll now see a clear progress card showing what it's reading, plus a live "working on it" indicator for slower actions, so the chat never feels frozen.
  • Cleaner approval flow. You'll only see an "Apply or Discard" prompt for actions that actually need your approval.
  • Longer conversations with the AI. The assistant can now handle much longer chats without hitting limits, automatically trimming the oldest messages so your latest questions always go through.
  • Polished image previews. Images shared in chat now display at their natural size and sit cleanly centered in their card, so screenshots and previews look tidier and more accurate.
  • Tidier idea creation chat. When you share a link with the AI during idea creation, its summary now appears right where you'd expect. The conversation also stays friendly and easy to follow without raw code snippets sneaking in.

Bug Fixes

  • Discarding a feature request now clears the card. Previously, dismissing an AI feature suggestion could leave the pending approval card stuck on screen.
  • OAuth setup pages load reliably. Fixed an issue where the screens for connecting Google or Kakao login could fail to load properly. Wording across these screens and the documentation has also been tightened up.
Update

  • One-click prompt suggestions. Tap an example chip like "Customer feedback dashboard" or "Korean cafe coworking finder" right inside the idea box to fill it in instantly, suggestions are generated fresh by AI in English or Korean.
  • Smarter chat suggestions. Starter prompts in the AI builder now adapt to what you've been talking about and where you are in your project, so the ideas feel more relevant.

  • Subscription refund coverage. Our refund policy now includes a 7-day cooling-off window for new subscribers who haven't used their plan, plus clear rules for cancelling (you keep access through the end of your billing period, no surprise charges).

Improvements

  • Refreshed homepage. A sharper headline ("Don't code. Build."), a new "Describe, Generate, Launch" walkthrough, trust signals, and the actual KakaoPay, NaverPay, and Toss logos make it easier than ever for newcomers to see what DontCode delivers out of the box.
  • Cleaner home page layout. Better spacing as you scroll and a new actionable section that helps you jump into key actions right from the start.
  • Fresher project flow. Finishing a new project from a template now clears the chat draft automatically, so coming back gives you a clean slate instead of a leftover conversation.
  • Discount codes survive social signup. Codes you arrive with are automatically reapplied after signing up with Google or Kakao, so your discount won't get lost mid-signup.
  • AI workflows builder is now deprecated. Existing flows keep working, but new automations should be requested through the App chat, you'll see a clear notice in-app.
  • On-brand text highlights. Selecting text in DontCode now uses our brand color for a more polished feel.
  • Tighter password reset security. Reset links are locked down so only the system itself can issue or read them, keeping your account safer.

Bug Fixes

  • Korean payments are more reliable. Fixed an issue that could block KakaoPay, NaverPay, and Toss credit purchases for some accounts, and improved how payment confirmations are processed so your credits and subscription updates show up correctly even if a notification arrives twice or out of order.
  • Canceled payments reverse correctly. Failed or canceled credit purchases are now reversed properly, keeping your balance accurate.
  • Smoother subscription checkout. Fixed a bug that could cause subscription payments to fail at the final step, so upgrading to a paid plan now goes through reliably.

Update

What's New — April 17, 2026

Prompts explain what you're unlocking (custom domains, advanced AI models, extra team seats, and more) in both English and Korean, and the billing page highlights the cheapest plan that fits with a purple "Recommended" badge.
  • Clearer upgrade path for team members. If you're not the project owner, locked-feature prompts now show the owner's name or email so you know exactly who to ask for the upgrade.
  • Smarter team seat limits. Invite forms clearly dim and link to upgrade options when you hit your plan's seat cap, so you know why and how to get more seats, no more surprise errors mid-invite.

  • Switching languages keeps your place. Changing between English and Korean no longer resets your filters or search terms.
  • Longer login sessions for your users. App sessions now default to 30 days, so your users stay signed in without constant re-authentication.
  • Real-time build status across your team. When a teammate starts building, the project status updates live, even if you just opened the page.
  • Polished editor layout. Content sections across the project editor now sit inside clean bordered cards for a tidier, more organized workspace.
  • Simplified roles management. The user roles page got a cleaner redesign, making it easier to set up permissions for your app.
  • Refreshed About Us page with updated team photos, new messaging, and faster load times.

Bug Fixes

  • Folders no longer act like files. Clicking a folder in the asset library now opens it immediately instead of selecting it as an asset.
  • Clearer database deletion errors. When rows can't be deleted because other data depends on them, you now see exactly what's blocking the deletion, right in the confirmation dialog.
  • Better dropdown validation. Invalid values in dropdown fields now tell you exactly which value was wrong and which field to check.

What's New — March 27, 2026

New Features

  • Promo & discount codes. You can now redeem promo codes when signing up for bonus credits or a discount on purchases. Each code shows exactly what you'll get, how long it lasts, and how many spots remain.
  • Personalized home screen. Your projects are now front and center when you return, with search, role filters, and a friendly greeting by name in both English and Korean.
  • Credit usage dashboard. Your Credits page now shows exactly where each credit was spent, including the project name, AI job type, and the message that triggered it, with color-coded cards and friendly labels like "AI Usage" and "Signup Bonus."
  • Asset library upgrade. Manage your project files with folders, drag-and-drop uploads, and easy move/delete/organize tools.
  • AI template suggestions. When describing your app idea, the AI can now recommend relevant templates to help you get started faster.
  • Billing & pricing page. A new dedicated page with clear credit packages ($5–$50), pay-as-you-go pricing, refund policy, and business contact info, accessible from the site footer.

Improvements

  • Smarter AI assistant. Ask "how do I..." and get accurate, step-by-step answers pulled from a built-in knowledge base. Branding, visual editing, styling, the AI now knows where to point you.
  • Private AI chat history. Your conversations with the AI assistant are now private to your account. Team members on the same project only see their own chats.
  • AI remembers your progress. Leave the idea assistant mid-conversation and come back later. Your answers and chat history are restored so you pick up right where you left off.
  • Team role awareness. The AI assistant now respects your team role. View-only members won't accidentally trigger changes, and you'll get a clear message if an action requires higher permissions.
  • Cleaner AI conversations. Responses now display in separate chat bubbles, and fewer unnecessary confirmation pop-ups interrupt your flow. Only significant changes still ask for approval.
  • Redesigned Branding section. Colors, logos, and brand settings now live on their own dedicated pages, making everything easier to find and edit.
  • Full Korean language support. Sign-in, sign-up, error messages, AI image tagging, asset descriptions, and personalized greetings all work natively in Korean.
  • Polished app icon. Updated mascot icon with better centering on home screens and browser tabs.
  • Smoother dashboard experience. Template search now highlights matching keywords, snappier animations throughout, and your role (owner, editor, viewer) is visible on every project card.

Bug Fixes

  • Clearer sign-in errors. Instead of confusing technical messages, you'll now see plain-language guidance like "This email is already registered. Try signing in instead."
  • Auth settings refresh. Fixed the authentication settings page not updating properly when switching between sections.
  • Fresh start for new ideas. Starting a new app idea from the home screen no longer shows leftover text from a previous session.

Improvements

  • Refreshed dark mode. Softer, more polished colors throughout the dark theme.
  • Friendlier User Management labels. Technical terms like "MFA" and "auth methods" are now "Two-Step Verification" and "Login Methods." The settings and entitlements pages are also reorganized for easier navigation.
  • Richer audit logs. Your app's audit log now tracks role changes, plan changes, access grants/revokes, user creation, and verification events for a fuller picture of activity.
  • Smarter AI assistant. The AI now sees the actual code of the page you're editing, so it gives more accurate answers and better suggestions.

Bug Fixes

  • Asset uploads restored. Fixed an issue where the Assets page wasn't letting you add new assets to your project.
  • Password reset page. Visiting a reset link that has expired or is invalid now shows a clear "Invalid Reset Link" message with a prompt to request a new one, instead of a loading screen or empty form.
  • Analytics crash fixed. Network errors in your app's user analytics no longer cause an unexpected crash, you'll see a clean error message instead.
