What you give up either way
- Cloud isolated sandboxes and managed build servers (hosted dev envs)
- Built-in device simulators and 1-click app store publishing assistance
- Prebuilt marketplace of 100+ integrations and enterprise features (SSO, SLAs)
- AI agent orchestration, credits system, and managed model hosting
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches Draftbit, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
