The Creator Backend Update
Self-hosted forms. Contact and feedback now run on our own Cloudflare backend — no third-party form service sees your messages — plus a private admin dashboard with stats, search, and CSV export.
Every release has one theme and one headline. Here's what's already shipped — and what's coming next.

Touch-friendly workspace. The command palette moved into the options menu for one-tap access, the PWA install flow got cleaner, and popups stop spilling off-screen on phones.
Find starters, share work. A browsable template gallery with search, filters, and live thumbnails — plus a proper share dialog with X, WhatsApp, and Telegram intents.
3.5MB lighter. A full vendor and code audit: unused editor languages, localization files, and dead icon weights removed — zero features touched.
Bring-your-own-key AI. Paste your own model key (free tiers from Gemini, Groq, OpenRouter) and get explain, generate, and fix-from-console right in the editor. Your code runs only in your browser, and your key and code go only to the AI provider you choose, never to NitroIDE servers. Plus one-click deploy to GitHub Pages and Netlify, and the Ko-fi push.
Growth and hardening. Listed on 9 software directories with a redesigned homepage badge row, daily publishing across social platforms mirrored on the Ecosystem Pulse page, Trustpilot reviews, Ko-fi and GitHub Sponsors — plus a full-site light-mode readability pass and a 68-file audit.
Live sessions + plugins — with a full public relaunch. Real-time collaboration with no backend and no accounts — the host shows a code, the guest pastes it, browsers connect peer-to-peer. Plus a plugin system with a community gallery. The 2.0 milestone gets the big public launch: Product Hunt, Hacker News, and the full announcement circuit.
Beyond HTML/CSS/JS. TypeScript, Markdown, and JSON editing in the workspace — only languages that run 100% client-side, keeping the no-backend promise.
No accounts. No logins. No NitroIDE servers seeing your code — your code runs only in your browser. Every release — including the AI and deploy features — keeps secrets in your browser. That's the moat, and it's not for sale.
