Overview
Project IDX is a web-based development workspace designed for full-stack application development. It integrates generative AI capabilities from Gemini to assist developers, and provides full-fidelity app previews powered by cloud emulators, eliminating the need for local environment setup.
As of the latest update, Project IDX has been integrated into Firebase Studio, which continues to build upon the original IDX platform by further enhancing AI-assisted development features. Existing IDX workspaces, settings, and sharing URLs remain functional in the new Firebase Studio environment.
