With Spark –, not to be confused with Apache Spark –, GitHub is releasing a completely automated full-stack AI web app builder that users control via commands in human language. The AI application generates apps that are themselves AI-enabled.

Nine out of ten web applications have security vulnerabilities – High time for web developers to act. The first enterJS Web Security Day on October 9, 2025 will focus on automated security checks, the use of passkeys and protection against AI-based attacks.
Based on Claude Sonnet 4, Spark develops the front and back ends for the web apps, creates the necessary repos and takes care of hosting, deployment and GitHub authentication. Spark automatically integrates data sources for the AI components and provides the inferences. Additional AI sources such as OpenAI or DeepSeek can also be added, including key management.

Developers work in human language, can edit control elements visually or adapt code with Copilot in the editor. Similar to Google Opal or Firebase Studio, Spark immediately displays the result in the development environment so that it can be further refined. Once everything is ready, developers can publish their app by clicking on "View site".

Currently, Spark is only available as a preview for Pro+ customers and includes 375 prompts per month. GitHub intends to roll it out generally soon.
