 # Bolt.new Fork by Cole Medin
 
-This enhanced fork of Bolt.new empowers you to choose from a variety of Language Models (LLMs) for each prompt, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, OpenRouter, Gemini, and Groq. The architecture is designed for easy extension to support any model compatible with the Vercel AI SDK. Detailed instructions for local setup and model integration are provided below.
+This fork of Bolt.new allows you to choose the LLM that you use for each prompt! Currently, you can use OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, OpenRouter, Gemini, or Groq models - and it is easily extended to use any other model supported by the Vercel AI SDK! See the instructions below for running this locally and extending it to include more models.

-## Bolt.new's Unique Advantages
+## What Makes Bolt.new Different
 
-While platforms like Claude and GPT-4 excel at code generation, Bolt.new takes it further by providing a complete development environment:
+Claude, v0, etc are incredible- but you can't install packages, run backends, or edit code. That’s where Bolt.new stands out:
 
-- **Comprehensive Browser-Based Development**: Bolt.new seamlessly integrates state-of-the-art AI models with an in-browser development environment powered by **StackBlitz's WebContainers**, enabling:
-  - Installation and execution of npm tools and libraries (e.g., Vite, Next.js)
-  - Node.js server runtime
-  - Third-party API integration
-  - Chat-based production deployment
-  - Shareable project URLs
+- **Full-Stack in the Browser**: Bolt.new integrates cutting-edge AI models with an in-browser development environment powered by **StackBlitz’s WebContainers**. This allows you to:
+  - Install and run npm tools and libraries (like Vite, Next.js, and more)
+  - Run Node.js servers
+  - Interact with third-party APIs
+  - Deploy to production from chat
+  - Share your work via a URL
 
-- **AI-Driven Environment Control**: Unlike traditional IDEs where AI assists only in code generation, Bolt.new grants AI models **full control** over the entire development ecosystem, including the filesystem, Node.js server, package manager, terminal, and browser console. This empowers AI agents to manage the complete application lifecycle from inception to deployment.
+- **AI with Environment Control**: Unlike traditional dev environments where the AI can only assist in code generation, Bolt.new gives AI models **complete control** over the entire  environment including the filesystem, node server, package manager, terminal, and browser console. This empowers AI agents to handle the whole app lifecycle—from creation to deployment.
 
-Bolt.new caters to experienced developers, product managers, and designers alike, facilitating the creation of production-ready full-stack applications with ease.
+Whether you’re an experienced developer, a PM, or a designer, Bolt.new allows you to easily build production-grade full-stack applications.

+## Tips and Tricks
+
+Here are some tips to get the most out of Bolt.new:
+
+- **Be specific about your stack**: If you want to use specific frameworks or libraries (like Astro, Tailwind, ShadCN, or any other popular JavaScript framework), mention them in your initial prompt to ensure Bolt scaffolds the project accordingly.
+
+- **Use the enhance prompt icon**: Before sending your prompt, try clicking the 'enhance' icon to have the AI model help you refine your prompt, then edit the results before submitting.
+
+- **Scaffold the basics first, then add features**: Make sure the basic structure of your application is in place before diving into more advanced functionality. This helps Bolt understand the foundation of your project and ensure everything is wired up right before building out more advanced functionality.
+
+- **Batch simple instructions**: Save time by combining simple instructions into one message. For example, you can ask Bolt to change the color scheme, add mobile responsiveness, and restart the dev server, all in one go saving you time and reducing API credit consumption significantly.
