Google is testing a vibe-coding app called Opal


Google is testing a new vibe-coding tool called Opal, available in the U.S. through Google Labs, that lets users quickly spin up web apps with just a few prompts.

Once the app is ready, you can navigate into an editor panel to see the visual workflow of input, output, and generation steps. Google’s AI studio already lets developers build apps using prompts, but Opal’s visual workflow indicates the company likely wants to target a wider audience. The company joins a long list of competitors, including Canva, Figma, and Replit, that are making tools to encourage non-technical people to create prototypes of apps without having to do any coding.
