Known issues we've tracked

PARTNERSHIP (2026-05-05): StackBlitz / Bolt.new announced a **strategic Microsoft partnership** -- Bolt.new is now purchasable through Microsoft vendor channels, deploys generated apps to Azure, and integrates with Microsoft 365. Material competitive shift: positions Bolt against Cursor / Lovable / v0 for the enterprise-procured app-builder slot inside Microsoft-shop organizations. Pairs with the broader Microsoft Agent 365 / Copilot agent platform push -- Bolt becomes the consumer-friendly entry point for non-developers in M365 shops who want to scaffold internal tools without going through IT. Pricing impact: enterprise via Microsoft channels typically lands at custom Azure-billed rates rather than the $20/mo Pro retail price.
