I was trying out some no-code website builders to understand how they work. One of the most well-known and frequently mentioned ones is @boltdotnew . I asked it to create a simple website. It built it using React. When I requested an iteration focused on SEO, it didn’t include the package.json file this time. Only package-lock.json was there, and apparently, I needed a token to fix the error.

Another frustrating part was during onboarding. It asked a few questions, and even though I selected that I’m a pro user, it still asked for payment because of such a simple issue. If it had been more realistic, for example by saying on my second prompt that I reached the limit, I would have paid without hesitation.
