What is Shakespeare?
Shakespeare is a web interface where you can build websites through conversation with AI assistants. It combines the power of AI with the freedom of the Nostr protocol, allowing you to create dynamic web apps without any coding or technical expertise.
Unlike similar proprietary and centralized services like Lovable, Shakespeare offers true freedom through user choice. While other website builders lock you into their platforms, with Shakespeare you can choose from multiple Nostr Service Providers (NSPs) to power your AI conversations. This means you can select the AI capabilities that best fit your needs, including the available tools and the price you want to pay.
This combination of AI web building + decentralization is completely unique, and only possible on Nostr!
Building Nostr Apps has Never Been Easier
Conversational AI Building
Shakespeare's natural language interface understands context and remembers your project history. Choose from multiple Nostr Service Providers (NSPs), each offering unique AI capabilities and specializations. Whether you're building a simple landing page or a complex web application, just describe what you want and watch it come to life.
Live Preview System
Desktop users enjoy a side-by-side view with the chat interface on one side and a live preview of their website on the other. Every change appears instantly — no refreshing, no waiting for builds. Mobile users get a seamless experience with easy switching between chat and preview modes.

Instant Deployment
Your websites are automatically deployed and accessible via public URLs the moment they're created. No setup required, no configuration headaches. Want the source code? Download the complete project as a ZIP file with one click.
True Freedom from Big Tech
Shakespeare breaks free from the constraints of centralized, proprietary website builders that lock you into their ecosystems:
- No Platform Lock-in: Your websites and data belong to you, not to a corporation
- Censorship Resistance: No single company or government can shut down your projects or restrict your creativity
- Self-Sovereign Identity: You control your identity through Nostr keys, not corporate accounts
- Open Source: Fully auditable codebase under AGPL 3.0 license — no proprietary black boxes
Transparent Pay-Per-Use
No subscriptions, no hidden fees. Pay only for actual AI generation time with real-time cost tracking. Pay Nostr Service Providers (NSPs) directly with USD via Stripe or Bitcoin Lightning. Shakespeare only takes a cut if you use our paid NSP: MKStack + Claude Sonnet 4.

Import & Collaborate with Git Repositories
Shakespeare isn't just for building new projects from scratch — it's also a powerful tool for importing, editing, and collaborating on existing projects. Whether you want to enhance your own repositories or contribute to open source projects, Shakespeare makes it incredibly easy.
Import Any GitHub or GitLab Project
Simply provide a GitHub or GitLab clone URL, and Shakespeare will import the entire project into your workspace. The AI assistant can then help you understand the codebase, make improvements, add features, or fix bugs — all through natural conversation.
📥 Import Project
Paste any GitHub or GitLab clone URL and Shakespeare imports the entire project, understanding its structure and dependencies.
🤖 AI-Assisted Editing
Chat with the AI to understand the codebase, add features, fix bugs, or refactor code. The AI maintains context about the project's architecture and coding patterns.
🔄 Live Testing
See your changes in real-time through the live preview. Test functionality, verify fixes, and iterate quickly without leaving the browser.
Perfect for Open Source Contributions
Shakespeare democratizes open source contribution by removing technical barriers. Whether you're a seasoned developer or someone with great ideas but limited coding experience, you can now meaningfully contribute to projects you care about.
Powered by Nostr Service Providers (NSPs)
Shakespeare is powered by Nostr Service Providers (NSPs) — a revolutionary new way to access AI tools and services through the decentralized Nostr protocol. NSPs were created specifically for Shakespeare and represent a breakthrough in decentralized AI services.
Unlike traditional AI services that lock you into a single provider, Shakespeare lets you choose from multiple NSPs, each offering different AI models, capabilities, and pricing. This means you get the freedom to select the AI provider that best fits your specific needs and budget.

The MKStack NSP brings the full power of our MKStack framework directly to your browser through Shakespeare, providing comprehensive Nostr development capabilities with 50+ NIPs, React components, and instant deployment.
