I´m new here and understand this has propable been asked many times before but this feature is the only reason I spend more time on loveable.dev than bolt.new so its a big deal for me.
i'd like to suggest an important usability improvement for bolt.new: the ability to directly click and reference UI elements when working with the AI assistant.

Current Challenge:

  • Having to verbally describe which component or area needs modification is time-consuming
  • It's difficult to precisely communicate which part of the application needs attention
  • This creates friction in the development workflow

Suggested Improvement:

  • Add ability to click/select UI elements directly in the preview
  • Have the AI automatically understand which component is being referenced
  • Similar to how loveable.dev implements this feature

Benefits:

  • Faster development cycles
  • More precise communication with the AI
  • Reduced cognitive load for developers
  • Better overall developer experience

This would be a significant quality-of-life improvement that could help bolt.new better compete with other AI-powered development platforms.

Would love to hear if this is something on your roadmap!
