Microfrontends support is now available in Public Beta. Microfrontends allow you to split large applications into smaller ones so that developers can move more quickly. This support lets teams and large apps build and test independently, while Vercel assembles and routes the app into a single experience. This reduces build times, supports parallel development, and enables gradual legacy migration. Developers can use the Vercel Toolbar to iterate and test their apps independently, while navigations between microfrontends benefit from prefetching and prerendering for fast transitions between the applications. To get started with microfrontends, clone one of our examples or follow the quickstart guide: In the Vercel dashboard...

Today, we're launching the official Vercel MCP server, a secure, OAuth-compliant interface that lets AI tools interact with your Vercel projects. AI tools are becoming a core part of the developer workflow, but they've lacked secure, structured access to infrastructure like Vercel. With this, tools like Claude Code and VS Code can access logs, docs, and project metadata directly from within your development environment or AI assistant. Read more Continue reading...

This update enhances collaboration between AI-driven workflows and Vercel ecosystems. For more details, read our the documentation. Read more Continue reading...

Vibe coding has changed how software gets built. Tools like v0 make it possible to turn ideas into working prototypes in seconds. Anthropic's CEO predicts 90% of code will be AI-generated in 3-6 months. Adoption is accelerating fast, and for many builders, we're already there. But here's the uncomfortable truth: The faster you build, the more risk you create Last week, a viral app leaked 72k selfies and government IDs. This wasn’t a hack or advanced malware. It was caused by default settings, misused variables, and the absence of guardrails. A misconfigured Firebase bucket that was mistakenly left public for anyone to access. The app was built quickly, shipped without security review, and went viral. Read more Continue reading...

Now, we’re going a step further by sponsoring builders innovating and showcasing what’s possible with v0. Today we’re launching the v0 Ambassador Program as a way to recognize and enable members of our community who create, share, and inspire. Apply to join the v0 Ambassador Program and help others discover the magic of what's possible with v0. Read more Continue reading...

Debugging a failing deploy can involve a lot of context switching between your deploy logs and external tools. We've added a new option to deep link directly into ChatGPT with your deploy analysis. Now you can get immediate AI-powered insights and debugging help without manually copying and pasting log information. How it works When a deploy fails, you'll see a "Why did it fail?" option. Clicking this now presents an "Ask ChatGPT" button which automatically opens and pre-populates ChatGPT with the relevant deploy context. Example use cases Quickly understand common errors in your build output. Get suggestions for fixing dependency issues. Receive explanations for unfamiliar error messages. Getting started Next time you encounter a...

A few months ago, we announced Fluid compute, an approach to serverless computing that uses resources more efficiently, minimizes cold starts, and significantly reduces costs. More recently at Vercel Ship 2025, we introduced Active CPU pricing for even more cost-effective compute on Vercel. Fluid compute with Active CPU pricing powers over 45 billion weekly requests, saving customers up to 95% and never charging CPU rates for idle time. Behind the scenes, it took over two years to build the required infrastructure to make this possible. Read more Continue reading...

Node.js 18 (LTS support ends April 30, 2025) and the Vercel legacy build image will be deprecated on September 1, 2025. If you are still using the legacy build image on this date, new builds will display an error. How do I know if I am still using the legacy build image? Projects using Node.js 18.x in Build and Deployment Settings use the legacy build image Projects using overrides in package.json use the legacy build image What changes between the legacy build image and latest build image? The minimum version of Node.js is now 20.x The Python toolchain version is now 3.12 The Ruby toolchain version is now 3.3.x Will my existing deployments be affected? Existing deployments will not be affected. However, the...

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a new spec that helps standardize the way large language models (LLMs) access data and systems, extending what they can do beyond their training data. It standardizes how developers expose data sources, tools, and context to models and agents, enabling safe, predictable interactions and acting as a universal connector between AI and applications. Instead of building custom integrations for every AI platform, developers can create an MCP server once and use it everywhere. Read more Continue reading...
