A competent developer can rebuild the core catalog, copy/export flow and team library, but reproducing the polish, Bubble-specific integration conveniences, and ongoing curated updates that justify the paid product requires more time and operations than a simple DIY clone.

No open-source build does this yet

Nothing published replaces this one, so a replacement starts from an empty file. Here is what it would have to cover.

What a replacement has to do

  • Browse component catalog in a Chrome extension, copy a component to clipboard or import into a Bubble app, save components to a personal/team library, invite teammates and share folders.

What it still won’t have

  • Bubble‑specific, curated component catalog tuned for copy/paste into Bubble
  • Chrome extension convenience for in-editor access
  • Built-in team sharing UI and permission controls
  • Commercial support and frequent curated updates

What remains hard

  • Product polish and ongoing maintenance

Runnable build prompt

Not run yet
Build a self‑hosted replacement: Create a Chrome extension frontend (React) and a backend (Node.js + Express) with PostgreSQL for storage, hosted on a small VPS (DigitalOcean). Core features in scope: browse/search component catalog in the extension, copy Bubble-ready component markup to clipboard, user signup/login with Stripe subscription (monthly plan), save components to personal and shared team libraries with folders, invite teammates and basic permission flags, and an admin UI to upload components. Out of scope: an AI assistant, analytics dashboard, or marketplace. Include error handling, input validation, unit tests for API endpoints, CI for deployment, and documentation for installing the Chrome extension and configuring Stripe and hosting.

The base comes from the verdict. Everything under it is a check that either happened or did not, and each one is a fact frozen in this record rather than a judgement made at render time - so the same evidence always produces the same number.
