v0 vs Artifact

v0 turns writing into software, once. Artifact makes your writing the standing source of truth your software is built against, and checked against. They are not the same job, and you might use both.

What v0 is good at.

Getting a first version on screen in an afternoon. If you've never built software, that first afternoon is a revelation, and it's real.

The moment it stops working.

The tenth feature. The generated app doesn't know what the first nine were supposed to do, so each new prompt risks the ones that worked. There's no record of what you decided, only what got generated. When it breaks, you regenerate and hope.

You don't have to choose on day one.

Prototype in v0 if it helps you think. Then connect the result to Artifact read-only, put what it's supposed to be on the record, and build the real thing with your own agents from that. Nothing is thrown away.
