Beyond Prompts: Direct Code Control

GenMB's prompt-based generation is great for creating and iterating on apps. But sometimes you need surgical precision — a specific line changed, a function renamed, or a complex refactor that's hard to describe in a prompt.

That's why we built GenMB Code.

What is GenMB Code?

GenMB Code is an AI coding assistant built into GenMB. Unlike prompt-based generation that regenerates your entire app, GenMB Code:

  • Reads your existing code to understand context
  • Makes targeted edits without touching unrelated code
  • Uses tools to navigate, search, and modify files
  • Maintains conversation across a session

Think of it as having a senior developer pair programming with you.

How It Works

  1. Open GenMB Code from any app (Pro feature)
  2. Describe what you want in natural language
  3. Watch it work — it reads files, plans changes, and edits code
  4. Review and approve the changes before they're applied

Example Workflows

Precise Edits:

"Change the primary button color from blue to green throughout the app"

GenMB Code finds all button instances and updates only the color, leaving everything else untouched.

Refactoring:

"Extract the form validation logic into a separate utility function"

It reads your current code, creates the utility function, and updates all call sites.

Bug Fixes:

"The counter resets when switching tabs — fix it to persist the count"

GenMB Code analyzes the state management, identifies the issue, and implements the fix.

Adding Features:

"Add a loading spinner that shows while data is being fetched"

It finds the fetch calls, adds loading state, and renders the spinner appropriately.

Tool Use Capabilities

GenMB Code has access to tools that let it:

  • Read files to understand existing code
  • Search code to find relevant functions and components
  • Write changes directly to your app
  • Run validations to check for errors

This makes it far more capable than a simple chatbot.

Sessions and Context

GenMB Code sessions are:

  • Persistent: Pick up where you left off
  • Contextual: Remembers previous changes in the session
  • Organized: Each app has its own sessions
  • Resumable: Come back anytime to continue

When to Use GenMB Code vs Prompts

Use Prompts when:

  • Creating a new app from scratch
  • Making broad changes to the overall design
  • Adding major new features
  • You want the AI to make all decisions

Use GenMB Code when:

  • Making specific, targeted changes
  • Refactoring existing code
  • Fixing bugs in precise locations
  • You want to review changes before applying
  • Working with complex existing codebases
