Story

Hey HN! I’m Simone. We re-built Breadboard, a visual app builder that mixes Figma-style UI design with Shortcuts-style logic so you can build, preview, and publish interactive web apps directly from the canvas.

What it does

    Design UIs visually with a flexible canvas –like Figma–.
    Define app logic with a visual, instruction-stacked editor inspired by Shortcuts.
    Live preview apps directly on the canvas –no separate preview window–.
    Publish working web apps with one click.

    Modernize the HyperCard idea: combine layout, behavior, and instant sharing in one place.
    Reduce friction between design and a working app.
    Make simple web apps approachable for non-developers while keeping power features for developers.
    Build a foundation for LLM integration so users can design and develop with AI while still understanding what’s happening, even without coding experience –in progress!–.
