← Back to ForionWhat is Orbit?
Orbit is an AI-native full-stack development platform built by Forion. It generates production-grade applications directly in the browser from a single prompt, without requiring any local setup, terminal, or configuration — across five supported output stacks: Vite React with TypeScript and Tailwind CSS, Next.js App Router with Supabase backend integration, plain HTML/CSS/JS websites, and Expo React Native for iOS and Android mobile apps. Unlike conventional AI code generators, Orbit applies design intelligence — including Visual Persona classification, Design System Lock, and motion-first generation — before any code is written. It targets developers, founders, and designers who need production-ready full-stack output with real design quality across web and mobile.
Most AI builders generate code. Orbit generates designed products. The difference is architectural — every component Orbit produces is conditioned by a Visual Persona, locked to a design system, and animated by default. The same generation system works across web and mobile, frontend and full-stack.
Two capabilities ship with every project. The Figma Token Exportconverts Orbit's design tokens — colors, type scale, spacing, border radius — into a Figma library file. The values in Figma are the exact values in the code. The JSON CMS Layer extracts all content into a structured file editable at /admin — no re-prompt, no redeployment, no developer required to change a headline. For Next.js + Supabase projects, Orbit scaffolds the auth flow, database schema, and API routes automatically.
Orbit generates for Vite React, Next.js App Router with Supabase, plain HTML/CSS/JS, and Expo React Native. Each stack has a generation profile that enforces correct conventions — server vs. client component boundaries in Next.js, Supabase RLS policies, web API exclusions in Expo — before any code is written.
The builder, in context.
Prompt surface, template picker, and live preview — all in one browser tab, no local setup required.
Eight things other builders don't do.
Design intelligence, system lock, motion by default, targeted editing, four stacks, no lock-in, custom aesthetics, and a real browser preview. Each one is a specific architectural decision, not a marketing claim.
Design intelligence before code
Orbit classifies what you are building and decides the visual language before writing a line. You describe a fintech dashboard; it reasons about data density, trust signals, and professional credibility — then builds from that reasoning. You do not specify fonts or color palettes.
Design system locked at generation
Every component Orbit generates references the same token set. The card border radius matches the modal. The button padding follows the same grid as the section padding. Without this, AI-generated apps accumulate visual inconsistency as they grow.
Animation by default, not by request
Every Orbit application has motion built in — calibrated to the visual persona. A finance dashboard gets sharp, fast transitions. A wellness app gets slow, breathing movements. Animation in Orbit is not a feature you toggle on. It is how Orbit builds.
Click an element. Change only that element.
The component annotation system lets you pin any element and scope your instruction to it. The rest of the application does not exist for that edit. Other AI builders have one input box; what you write changes everything. The annotation system is a scalpel.
Five stacks. One generation system.
Vite React for SPAs. Next.js App Router with Supabase auth and database scaffolding for full-stack products. Plain HTML/CSS/JS for zero-dependency web pages. Expo React Native for iOS and Android mobile apps with NativeWind. Each stack has a strict generation profile — Orbit picks the right one from your description, or you choose.
Standard code. No lock-in.
Orbit produces React, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS — no proprietary component system, no platform-locked runtime. Any developer can take the output and maintain it. The code you own is the code Orbit writes.
Your design system. Every project.
Skills are instruction packs that encode an aesthetic. Built-in packs include glassmorphism, editorial magazine layouts, and Apple-style minimalism. You can write your own, generate one from a plain English description, or apply your existing design system documentation.
Preview in a real browser environment
The preview is a live Vite dev server running inside the browser tab. npm install, dev server startup, and hot reload behave like local development — without a terminal, without a local Node install, without any setup.
Templates, history, your projects.
The workspace organizes your work across Templates, Recently viewed, and My projects — 8 curated starting points, full session history, and every project yours to export. No account lock-in. 100% standard code.
- Jump from a template to a running scaffold in one flow.
- Return to recent work without hunting through chat logs.
- Every project is named, versioned, and yours to export.
Curated starting points — SaaS, mobile, APIs, and more.
Pick up exactly where you left off across sessions.
Everything you own — named, organized, ready to ship.
From idea to first runnable version.

Straight answers.
- What is Orbit by Forion?
- Orbit is an AI-native frontend development platform that generates production-grade React and TypeScript applications in the browser from a single prompt. It differs from other AI builders by applying design intelligence before any code is written — classifying the visual context of your product, locking a design system, and generating animated output that is coherent across all components. No local setup is required. Everything runs in a live browser environment.
- How does Orbit differ from Lovable or v0?
- Lovable, v0, and Bolt.new generate functional code with minimal design reasoning. Orbit generates designed products — output where the visual language, typography, spacing, animation, and component coherence have all been determined by design intelligence, not default templates. Orbit also uses a component-level annotation system for editing, which allows targeted changes to individual elements without affecting the rest of the application.
- What is the Visual Persona System in Orbit?
- The Visual Persona System is the design intelligence layer that runs before any code generation in Orbit. It reads your prompt and classifies the visual context — what kind of product is being built, for whom, in what environment. It then establishes the correct visual language for that context: typography choices, color palette, layout density, animation character, and spatial composition. This reasoning is locked at generation time and applied consistently across the entire application.
- What stacks does Orbit support?
- Orbit supports four stacks: Vite React for single-page applications and interactive tools, Next.js App Router for SEO-critical sites and content platforms, plain HTML/CSS/JS for landing pages and non-developer users with no build step required, and Expo React Native for iOS and Android mobile applications. Each stack has a strict generation profile that governs what Orbit can and cannot produce — this is enforced before any code is written.
- Does Orbit generate real production code or prototypes?
- Orbit generates real, production-grade code — standard React, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS with no proprietary lock-in. The output can be exported and maintained by any developer. It is not locked into Orbit's environment or a proprietary component system. The distinction from prototype-level output is that Orbit's code ships with design system tokens, animation, and component coherence that prototype generators do not produce.
- What are Skills in Orbit?
- Skills are instruction packs that teach Orbit how to generate in a specific aesthetic. Built-in skills include glassmorphism, editorial magazine layouts, Apple-inspired minimalism, and brutalist design. Users can write custom skills encoding their own design systems, or generate a skill from a plain English description. A marketplace layer allows designers to publish and monetize their skills. Every skill produces genuinely different output — not color variations of the same template.
