Appearance
These settings control the visual presentation of the AppBlips interface.Theme
Light | Dark | System
default:"Light"
Sets the color scheme for the AppBlips interface. Light keeps the interface in a light palette at all times. Dark keeps it dark at all times. System follows your operating system’s current color scheme preference and switches automatically when your OS switches.
Build pane font
Small | Default | Large | XL
default:"Small"
Controls the text size throughout the entire build pane, including starter ideas, the conversation history, and the prompt input field. Increase this if you prefer larger text while writing or reviewing prompts.
Build pane position
Left | Right
default:"Left"
Determines which side of the workspace the build pane appears on. This setting applies on wider screens where both the build pane and the preview panel are displayed side by side.
Workspace
These settings control how the preview and build experience behaves during and after generation.Code view
toggle
default:"Off"
When enabled, a Code tab appears in the preview toolbar. Select it to inspect the raw HTML of your generated app at any time. This setting is off by default so the interface stays focused on the live preview for most users.
Auto Follow Code
toggle
default:"On"
When enabled, the Code tab automatically scrolls to keep the most recently written line visible as AppBlips streams in the generated code. Disable this if you want to scroll back and read earlier sections while generation is still in progress.
Live code preview
toggle
default:"On"
When enabled, the preview pane shows a live peek at the code being written while your app is generating. Disable this if you prefer a clean preview that only updates once the full app is ready.
Skip splash screen
toggle
default:"Off"
When enabled, AppBlips skips the intro animation that plays on launch and takes you straight to the workspace. This setting takes effect on the next page load — the current session is not affected.
AI
These settings influence how the AI model reasons and communicates before and during generation.Reasoning effort
Off | Low | Medium | High
default:"Off"
Controls how much time the AI spends reasoning through your request before it begins generating code. Off is the fastest option and works well for straightforward prompts. High is the most thorough and produces better results for complex or multi-part apps, but takes longer and uses more tokens.
Clarifying questions
toggle
default:"Off"
When enabled, AppBlips may ask you a clarifying question before generating — for example, to confirm the intended behavior of an ambiguous feature. This helps the AI understand your intent and can reduce back-and-forth editing, but adds a step before the first build begins.
