With tools like Claude and Codex now generating full HTML, TypeScript, and React components instantly, is there any plan for Bubble to properly support importing or embedding this code directly?

At the moment, Bubble’s AI feels a bit hit or miss, and it often pushes you back into the visual editor. It feels limiting when many of us could move significantly faster by simply pasting and running external frontend code more natively.

I’ve been building more in React/Node recently, and the speed and flexibility are on another level. Being able to combine that with Bubble’s strengths in database, security, and mobile would be incredibly powerful. Personally, I’d much rather see this than continued incremental improvements to the AI builder; just let us bring in external code properly.

Would love to know if this is on the roadmap, or if there’s a better approach people are using today.

Yeah. I have been coding directly in Xcode using AI and it has been blowing my mind. 🤯

It’s actually been taking longer to get Apple to just approve my developer account than to actually build an app. 🤣

Same, I subscribed to Claude just so I could use Buildprint. But for fun I had it build an iOS language learning app. It built it in a few hours. Few bugs here and there, but not too bad! Might actually publish it to the App Store in a few weeks

buildprint converts code to Bubble btw

Wow this is pretty cool. My app uses npm packages. Which classes of dependencies can be preserved, wrapped, replaced, or not supported at all? Does the code show as a custom html element, or as actual blocks in the editor. Have quite a few questions, so wondering if there are any video walkthroughs?

\*\* I spent a minute in buildprint, but it says that “Build” is coming soon - and that only “Plan” is available? So how do I convert my react/node.js into my bubble?

It’ll convert UI and process logic into Bubble workflows / conditions / expressions etc

It doesn’t build custom plugins (yet)

I see… is there a chance you can give my app access to “editing”/”Building”?
