Instant turns your favorite AI into a full-stack app builder. You get auth, permissions, storage, presence, and streams — everything you need to ship apps your users will love. Free to use, 100% open source. and works well for both vibe coding and production apps! You can get started by simply running `npx create-instant-app` in the terminal or just add “Read getadb.com first” to any prompt
Scaffolding apps is one of those things that sounds simple but gets boring fast, same folders, same setup every time. Instant makes that whole step feel almost invisible, which is kind of amazing.
I was genuinely surprised by how clean everything came together.
Congrats on the launch! 🚀

@matheusdsantosr_dev Thank you! And yea, scaffolding can add some serious friction. One of the things we wanted with Instant is to make that as lightweight as possible so Instant can work with whatever setup you like!

This looks powerful. What’s the fastest thing someone can realistically build with it today?

Can’t fathom yet how big of a deal Instant is—this is such a hard problem that I’ve realized the day I read about Linear’s sync engine. Godspeed folks, love the attention to detail!

@aabedraba Thank you! This has definitely been a labor of love!

@nezaj if I wanted to get reporting dashboards of app data, and I wanted to use something like refine.dev for that, or similar, what’s are your customers doing in that case?
InstantDB
@aabedraba You can just ask your agent to make you a dashboard of your data and it should just work. This is what I do for my own apps I build on Instant!

It's amazing what you can do when you build on postgres.
I love the fact you can start with your library of choice (i.e. Drizzle) and then gradually start using InstantDB SDK.
My favourite tool out there, congrats on launching! 🚀
