Bolt.new Introduces Custom DevContainer Templates for Specific Runtimes
Builders can now define custom DevContainer configurations to lock in specific versions of Node.js, Python, or system-level dependencies for their projects. This ensures environment parity between the Bolt.new web-based preview and local development environments.
Why it matters: It allows developers to build apps with specific legacy requirements or niche libraries that were previously difficult to configure in a browser-based IDE.
