Start with the most specific page for a question: Bolt Cloud pages for databases, hosting, and domains; Account pages for plans, billing, and tokens; Troubleshooting pages for errors. For prices, token amounts, and plan limits, answer from the help center. If you can't find the answer there, say you don't know and point the user to a relevant article rather than guessing. For account-specific problems the docs don't resolve, such as a failed payment or a missing project, direct people to the Contact Support page, which explains the support options for their plan. # Supported technologies > See which browsers, platforms, and languages Bolt supports, and how the building experience differs in Safari and on mobile devices. ## Supported browsers On desktop, Bolt works in Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers. Bolt also works in Safari, with a [few differences](#safari). Browser extensions such as ad blockers, privacy tools, or VPNs can sometimes cause issues. If things aren't working as expected, try turning them off and refreshing the page. ### Chromium-based browsers Examples of Chromium-based browsers include: * Chrome * Microsoft Edge * Brave * Vivaldi * Opera * Epic ### Safari Building with Bolt in Safari on a Mac has these differences compared to Chromium-based browsers: * In [Code view](https://support.bolt.new/building/code-view.md), your project files are read-only and file search isn't available. You can still open and look through your project's files, but you can't edit them directly. Prompt Bolt for any changes you want. * The [terminal](https://support.bolt.new/building/code-view.md#use-the-terminal) isn't available. To run commands or check terminal output, open your project in Chrome or another Chromium-based browser. * Previews are hosted rather than running in the browser, so you might see a message like `Building a hosted preview of your app`. This is an expected part of working in Safari. A hosted preview is different from your live site. You still have to [publish your project](https://support.bolt.new/bolt-cloud/hosting/publish.md) to make it a live website. #### Opening a project in different browsers If you created a project in Safari, then open it in Chrome (or another Chromium-based browser), the preview loads automatically. If you created a project in Chrome, then open it in Safari, the preview doesn't load automatically. To generate your preview in Safari, prompt Bolt: `Load the preview` or `Show my project's preview`. #### Viewing updates to your preview in Safari Since Safari previews are hosted, Bolt needs to generate a new version of the preview whenever you make changes. While the preview updates, you may see this message: `This preview may be outdated — it refreshes automatically once your latest changes finish deploying.` ## Mobile Bolt works on any mobile browser. From your phone or tablet, you can start a project, chat with Bolt, preview your app, publish your site, invite people to your project, and restore an earlier version. You can also start a project on your phone and continue on your computer, or the other way around. If you've made changes on one device, then switch to another, refresh the browser to make sure the latest changes appear. When you publish from mobile, you can update or unpublish your site from your phone. On Pro and Teams plans, you can also choose whether your site is private or public. On other plans, published sites are public. Mobile-specific instructions appear throughout the Help Center alongside the desktop instructions. Look for the purple **On mobile** callouts. To quickly launch Bolt on a mobile device, you can add it to your home screen. When you open a project on mobile, Bolt shows an **Install Bolt on your phone** card in the chat. Tap **Install**, and then follow the on-screen instructions. ### Desktop-only features Some features aren't available on mobile, including [Code view](https://support.bolt.new/building/code-view.md), [visual edits](https://support.bolt.new/building/visual-edits.md), and your [database](https://support.bolt.new/bolt-cloud/database.md). When [restoring an earlier version](https://support.bolt.new/managing-projects/rollback-backup.md), you need to be on desktop to preview the prior version before restoring. Although you can see a list of versions on mobile, you can only see a preview of each version on desktop. ## Platforms You can use Bolt to build websites, web apps, and even mobile apps. Bolt projects can be turned into mobile applications using [Expo](https://support.bolt.new/integrations/expo.md). > [!TIP] > > Include the words `mobile app` in your initial prompt to direct Bolt to create an Expo-compatible app. ## Languages and frameworks Bolt focuses on JavaScript-based web technologies. It supports: * Node.js for the backend. * Browser-native code: any JavaScript framework that runs on the frontend. > [!NOTE] > > Bolt only supports JavaScript-based backends, so languages such as PHP or Python aren’t compatible. ## Databases Bolt offers built-in database creation and management through [Bolt Cloud](https://support.bolt.new/bolt-cloud.md). You also have the option to [connect your project to Supabase](https://support.bolt.new/integrations/supabase.md) for more advanced database management and configuration.
