JDoodle.ai Documentation

JDoodle.ai is an innovative AI-powered web-based platform that turns your natural language ideas into fully functional applications without any coding​.

In other words, your new programming language is English – you simply describe what you want, and JDoodle.ai generates the code and user interface for you.

This means faster MVPs and the ability to launch digital products or pages independently, without a developer.

• Go from idea to live application in minutes
• Build your project using natural language prompts; no coding expertise is required
• Easily refine your project with real-time feedback

Building your first website

This section will guide you through a simple example project from start to finish.

Build from template

After signing in, just start typing what you want. You could also choose a prompt from the template options listed below, like event signup, investment calculator, product hunt countdown, etc.

You can also use one of the prompt examples below or clone the project linked to it:

Prompt	Public Project Link
Build a customizable countdown timer for events, launches, or deadlines with simple date-picker functionality.	https://s82rxu.jdoodle.io
Build a basic budgeting tool that helps users calculate daily or monthly budgets and display results in a simple, visual format.	https://92fbj7.jdoodle.io
Build a Roast Generator web app that accepts a user description and outputs a witty, sarcastic roast in real time.	https://n6sjgj.jdoodle.io

Build from scratch

Building from zero will also let you deploy in a couple of minutes.

We’ll create a simple landing application to familiarize you with the process.

Describe what you want

In the JDoodle.ai prompt box, type a short description of your app. For example, enter:

paste the below prompt in the chatbox Build a fun, vibrant landing page for "Marketing Mojo". Start with a hero section featuring the headline and a subheadline. Include a prominent CTA button, showcase 4–6 core services using playful icons & catchy one-sentence descriptions, followed by a fun example like a case study paired with an eye-catching image or animation. Add 2–3 brief testimonials in a casual tone, and conclude with a footer that contains contact details, social media links, and a secondary CTA. Ensure the overall design is colorful, modern, responsive, and uses playful typography along with engaging visuals.

Hit enter to submit your prompt and wait for JDoodle.ai to generate your application. After JDoodle.ai is done, you can view the live preview area on the right-hand area.

Refine if needed

Let’s say we want to make a small change to see how refinement works. For example, maybe we want the text to be blue and centered. We can tell JDoodle.ai that.

On the left-hand side, you’ll find the chat continuation area where you can enter follow-up instructions. Type something like: “Add more services like email marketing, brand strategy, and web analytics.”

Submit this instruction. JDoodle.ai will update the code, and the preview will refresh. Each follow-up instruction will cost you one credit.

Deploying

Click the Publish button on the top-right corner of the screen. Confirm that you want to publish, and in a few seconds, your app will get deployed. You can open that URL in a new tab, and share it. Here’s the link to the marketing services landing page: https://23q1ca.jdoodle.io

If you wish for a more complex project, the steps are the same – you might just spend more time iterating and refining to get the functionality right.

Remember that you can always start with a small piece of the project, see it working, and then build on it incrementally (which is a recommended approach).

Beginner tips

Experiment with your prompts

Don’t worry if your first description isn’t perfect. You can try different ways of phrasing what you want and observe how the output changes.

For example, if the initial result isn’t what you expected, add more detail to your prompt (“...with a blue background and a header at the top”) or break the task into smaller prompts (first ask for a page layout, then add a feature).

JDoodle.ai is quite flexible and works best with clear, specific instructions, so feel free to experiment to see how it responds. The more you practice describing features, the better the AI can help you.

Leverage templates and examples

If you’re unsure how to start, use the provided example prompts or templates. JDoodle.ai’s suggested projects (like Event signup forms or calculators) can be a learning tool.

You can create one of those and then inspect the generated application to understand how JDoodle.ai structures different types of apps. This can give you ideas for your project prompts.

Rollback

If a new prompt doesn’t produce the changes you expected, you can easily rollback to a previous version you liked. This feature acts as an undo button, allowing you to revert your project to a known, working state without losing your progress.

Accessing all projects

You'll find an all projects section on the left-hand side of your JDoodle.ai dashboard that displays all your saved projects. Simply click on any project to open it in the editor, where you can rework, update, or refine your application as needed.

Beginner FAQs

Do I need coding skills to use JDoodle.ai?

No. You do not need any coding experience to use JDoodle.ai.​

The platform is built for non-programmers. You interact with it by writing plain-language instructions, and it handles all the code generation behind the scenes. Of course, if you have some coding knowledge, you can manually tweak the generated code, but this is optional. Many users successfully build applications without writing a single line of code themselves.

How accurate is the AI in building what I want?

JDoodle.ai’s AI is highly advanced and generally accurate in interpreting your prompts. It usually produces a working application that matches your first-time description.

The code it generates is clean and production-ready​, following the best practices of the React framework. That said, the AI might not read your mind perfectly every time – complex requirements could need a couple of iterations.

You can refine your prompt or use the chat to clarify any missed details, and the AI will adjust the app accordingly. Usually, the first result gets you close, and any fine-tuning can be done with quick follow-up instructions.

Can I use a custom domain for the apps I build?

Yes, with an paid plan.

What if I want to export the code or integrate with my development workflow?

JDoodle.ai is your code – not a closed system. You can view and download the generated code at any time.

What’s the supported tech stack of JDoodle.ai?

You can build front-end React applications with JDoodle.ai.

• React
• Node.js
• Packages available in NPM
