What it is
Trae is ByteDance's AI IDE whose SOLO mode plans, builds, previews and deploys web apps to Vercel from the chat. Builders who like an all-in-one AI IDE that goes from prompt to deployed app in one session.

Trae at a glance
Stack
Any web stack; SOLO projects are often React + Vite or Next.js with Supabase
Publishing and hosting
In SOLO mode, connect your Vercel account under Integrations and click Deploy in the chat panel; Trae returns a live URL and the project appears in your Vercel dashboard. You can also push to GitHub and deploy with Vercel, Netlify or your own host. Use the production URL or your domain in WebViewGold.
Authentication
Supabase Auth (through Trae's Supabase integration), Clerk, Auth.js or Firebase
Payments
Stripe
Builder badge
No builder badge to remove.
Example: from Trae project to approved app
Say you built a pickup-game organizer for a local basketball league in Trae SOLO: players see the week's games, join with one tap and the organizer gets a full roster. SOLO set up Supabase for accounts and games, and you deploy to Vercel with one click, then connect hoops.yourdomain.com. Wrapped with WebViewGold, the app sends a OneSignal push when a game is one player short, and the native share sheet (shareapp://) lets players invite friends with a link to the game. You add Sign in with Apple next to Google, put a demo player in the review notes and point the app straight at /games instead of the landing page. Both stores approve it, and each Deploy in SOLO updates the installed apps.
Your first week after launch
- Deploy from SOLO as usual and open the production domain afterwards to confirm it serves the new version, not only the new deployment URL.
- Keep .trae/rules/project_rules.md current with the WebViewGold bridge calls you use, so SOLO keeps them working in later sessions.
- Check the Supabase plan and usage after launch; a paused or rate-limited free project looks like an outage inside the app.
- Add a light haptic (lighthaptic://) when a player joins a game; small native touches make the app feel less like a website.
- Ask for a rating with rateapp:// after a player's first game, not on the first launch.
Store-readiness prompt
Paste into Trae, review the changes, publish.
Prompt for Trae (SOLO or Builder)
Before the next Deploy, prepare this project for the App Store and Google Play. It will run inside the WebViewGold native WebView wrapper on iPhone, iPad and Android phones. Check each step in the built-in preview at phone width. 1. Ensure a meta viewport tag, no horizontal overflow from 320px to 1024px, 44px tap targets and safe-area-inset padding on fixed headers and footers. 2. Make the start URL the app itself (sign-in or the main screen), not a marketing landing page; tell me which path to use. 3. Add /privacy and /terms pages linked from the footer, and a "Delete account" action that deletes the user's Supabase rows and auth user after confirmation. 4. Remove "Download our app" banners and external promotional links from the main navigation; add retry states for failed requests. 5. List every OAuth provider and redirect URL the app uses, so I can update the Supabase allow list and the WebViewGold Social Login Helper. 6. Add these rules to .trae/rules/project_rules.md. Do not deploy yet. Summarize the changes and the production URL I should put into WebViewGold.

Frequently asked questions
How do I get a Trae SOLO app into the App Store?
Deploy it from SOLO to Vercel (or any host), connect your domain, insert the production URL into WebViewGold for iOS, build with Xcode or the Cloud Builder and submit through App Store Connect. WebViewGold for Android uses the same URL for Google Play.
Which URL do I put into WebViewGold after clicking Deploy in Trae?
The production domain of the Vercel project (yourproject.vercel.app or, better, your own domain), not the per-deployment URL with a random hash and not the local preview. The production domain always serves the latest deployment, so the app updates with every Deploy.
Do I need a paid Vercel plan for a store app built with Trae?
If the app makes money, yes. Vercel's Hobby plan is limited to personal, non-commercial use, and its fair use guidelines require a Pro or Enterprise plan for commercial projects. A free club app can stay on Hobby; a product with subscriptions, ads or paying customers should move to Pro before you submit, so the app does not depend on a plan you are not allowed to use for it.
Is it a problem for the stores that Trae is made by ByteDance?
No. Apple and Google review the app, its content and the data it collects, not the editor it was written in. Your users' data goes to the services the app uses, typically Vercel and Supabase, so those belong in your privacy policy and store privacy forms. What happens to your source code during development is covered by Trae's own terms, which are worth reading if you build for clients.
