What makes it different
Everything your portfolio website needs already built in
You prompt, Bolt's AI handles the rest, from responsive layout to live deployment.
Go live in minutes
Type a prompt, watch the code generate in real time, preview it instantly, and deploy to a public URL.
Describe your design
Every generated website is unique to your prompt. Describe the aesthetic, colors, and layout you want and the AI applies it or iterate from the code editor.
Responsive by default
Mobile, tablet, and desktop layouts are handled automatically. Every website created by Bolt works on any screen without extra work.
Edit code in the browser
All generated code lives in a full browser-based IDE. Adjust AI generated code directly or keep prompting, Bolt will apply changes without breaking what's working.
Deploy in one click
Bolt publishes to a live URL automatically. Connect a custom domain in minutes, no server management, no DevOps required.
Get full-stack support
Need a contact form with a backend, or a CMS? Bolt can generate APIs, databases, and auth flows in the same project.
How it works
From idea to live site in three steps
No setup. No installs. Just open Bolt.new and start.
Describe what you want
Tell Bolt what your website should look like, what sections it needs, and the style you want. Plain language is all you need.
Review and refine
Watch your app generate in real time. Preview it in the browser, ask for changes in follow-up prompts, or edit the code directly.
Deploy and share
Hit deploy. Bolt publishes your website to a live URL. Connect your custom domain and you're done.

Real results from real portfolio builders
“I described the layout I had sketched on paper and it built exactly that, AI responsive, clean, with a working contact form. Took 90 seconds to generate and another 10 to deploy.”
“Every other portfolio tool felt like a compromise. Bolt let me describe exactly what I wanted and actually built it. I iterated for 20 minutes and shipped something I'm proud of.”
