| 19 | +## Stop Starting From Scratch |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +Every developer knows the feeling: you’ve got a clear idea in your head, maybe even a sketch on a whiteboard. But before you can test it with real users, you have to grind through setup. Wiring state, scaffolding pages, connecting a database, writing the same boilerplate you wrote last week. |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +By the time the foundation is ready, the excitement is gone. What if you could skip straight to the fun part? |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +## Meet Reflex Build |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +[Reflex Build](https://build.reflex.dev/) is our AI-powered builder that takes a simple prompt — *“Give me a sales dashboard with charts, filters, and a database connection”* and turns it into a working Reflex app. |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +Not a toy. Not a mockup. A real app you can run, edit, and deploy. |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +Think of it as your co-founder who handles all the boring scaffolding so you can focus on the parts that matter. |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +## From Prompt to Product |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +Here’s what a typical workflow looks like with Reflex Build: |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +1. **Connect your data** — This step is optional, but if you have external data, paste in a database URL or choose an integration to load the data. |
| 38 | +2. **Describe your app** — tell Reflex Build what you want: *“AI-driven support dashboard with ticket search, alert timelines, and user profiles.”* |
| 39 | +3. **Watch it appear** — in less than a minute, you’ve got pages, components, and state wired together. |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +At this point you’re not staring at boilerplate. You’re clicking through a live app that already feels real. |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +```python exec |
| 44 | +import reflex as rx |
| 45 | +from reflex_image_zoom import image_zoom |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +def render_image(): |
| 48 | + return rx.el.div( |
| 49 | + image_zoom( |
| 50 | + rx.image( |
| 51 | + src="/blog/reflex_build_example.png", |
| 52 | + class_name="p-2 rounded-md h-auto", |
| 53 | + border=f"0.81px solid {rx.color('slate', 5)}", |
| 54 | + ), |
| 55 | + class_name="rounded-md overflow-hidden", |
| 56 | + ), |
| 57 | + rx.text( |
| 58 | + 'Generated from the prompt: "Give me a sales dashboard with charts, filters, and a database connection."', |
| 59 | + class_name="text-sm text-slate-10 mt-2 italic", |
| 60 | + ), |
| 61 | + class_name="w-full flex flex-col rounded-md cursor-pointer py-2", |
| 62 | + ) |
| 63 | +``` |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +```python eval |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +rx.el.div(render_image()) |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +``` |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +## Why Reflex Build Feels Different |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +There are plenty of “AI app generators” out there. Most stop at prototypes, pretty wireframes you can’t actually ship. Reflex Build is different. It's a Python first AI builder that creates enterprise ready apps you can take straight to production: |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +- **Production-first**: It generates actual Reflex code you can extend, not locked-in templates. |
| 76 | +- **Theming built-in**: Charts, forms, and tables inherit your app’s look automatically. |
| 77 | +- **Real integrations**: Connect to databases, APIs, and auth providers the same way you would by hand. |
| 78 | +- **Fast iteration**: Change the prompt, regenerate, and keep what you like. |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | +Instead of bolting AI on top of your workflow, Reflex Build is woven directly into it. |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +## Who It’s For |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +- **Solo devs** who want to move fast without drowning in boilerplate. |
| 85 | +- **Product teams** that need working scaffolds to customize and ship. |
| 86 | +- **Founders** who want to turn an idea into a testable app over a weekend. |
| 87 | +- **Enterprise teams** that require production ready apps, real integrations, and the flexibility to extend in Python. |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +If you’re building dashboards, admin panels, or internal tools, Reflex Build is like starting a sprint with 70% of the work already done. |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +## The Future of App Development |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +We believe the future isn’t *AI replacing developers*. It’s AI working with developers in Python, where enterprise teams already build their most critical apps. Open up Reflex Build, type your first prompt, and see what you can create in minutes. |
