Craft42
Plain-language requests
Describe what you want in your own words. Follow-up requests stay on the same branch with the same agent session.
Your app. Your code. Your next change.
Change your web app by describing it.
Craft42 is a no-code AI app builder, like Base44, for apps that live in your own GitHub. Describe the change, check the preview, approve it.
For Laravel web apps kept in GitHub.
A change, from start to review
Example
Your request
“Make the sign-up button green and move it above the fold.”
- Code edited on its own branch
- Tests passed
- Preview ready
- Pull request opened
Nothing is live until merged.
How it works
From a request to a reviewed change.
Start with what you want to change. See the result before it reaches your live site.
-
Describe it
Pick your site and write what you want changed in plain words.
-
Craft42 makes the change on its own branch
The agent edits a separate copy of your code and explains what it changed.
-
Check the preview and tests
Open the private preview. Read the test results and code changes. Ask for a follow-up if needed.
-
Approve it as a pull request
Send for approval to open a GitHub pull request. Merging deploys through your site’s normal hosting.
Features
Room to try. A chance to review.
Each change has its own branch, checks, and preview. You decide what moves forward.
Its own branch per change
The agent works in a separate copy of your site. Your change stays on its own branch while you review it.
A sandboxed agent
The agent can only read and edit files in its copy. It has no shell and cannot run commands. The copy gets example settings, never real secrets.
Tests and build on every change
After the agent finishes, Craft42 builds the front-end assets and runs your site’s test suite. You can read the results.
A live preview with seed data
Open a private link to your changed site. The preview uses its own throwaway database filled with seed data.
Pull requests for approval
Send for approval to open a GitHub pull request with your requests and test results. Nothing goes live until merged. Discard anything you do not want.
FAQ
A few things
to know.
Do I need to know how to code?
You can request changes in plain words and check the result in a preview. Craft42 edits the code for you. The change goes through a GitHub pull request before someone merges it.
What kind of apps does it work on?
Craft42 works on Laravel web apps kept in GitHub, including apps moved off Base44.
Can it break my live site?
Changes stay in a separate copy on their own branch. The preview uses a throwaway database with seed data. Nothing goes live until someone merges the pull request. Review the preview and test results before merging.
Does the AI see my passwords or API keys?
The agent’s copy gets a .env file built from .env.example, never your real secrets. The agent can only read and edit files in that copy. It has no shell and cannot run commands.
What if I do not like the result?
Send follow-up instructions to continue the same change. Or choose Discard to stop the preview and remove the copy and branch.
How do I get access?
There is no public sign-up yet. Accounts are set up by the Craft42 team. Start at craft42.ai. Once you have an account, sign in with a 6-digit code sent by email. No password needed.
