Firebase Studio combines prompt-to-app generation with a full cloud IDE
Google launched Firebase Studio in preview, combining Project IDX, Genkit, Gemini assistance, a CodeOSS workspace, device previews and Firebase App Hosting. Its prototyping agent could generate a Next.js application from text or images and wire in an initial Gemini flow.
Why it matters: The product joined AI prototyping, editable source, emulators and deployment in one environment instead of ending at a non-portable mockup.
