I tried every vibe-coding tool so you don't have to — and there was one clear winner

A hands-on comparison of dedicated vibe-coding platforms — Canva Code, Replit, Base44, and Bolt — tested by building a color palette generator app. Canva Code delivered a solid first output with minimal prompting, Replit's free tier limits private publishing and requires terminal setup for standalone use, Base44 lacks easy export options, and Bolt is more developer-oriented with free deployment to Vercel or Netlify but has token limits. The piece is a personal experience report aimed at non-developers curious about which platform gets them from idea to working app fastest.
