Featured Apps

Code with AI: Write Velo Code

AI code generation works best when the prompt includes the goal, page elements, data collections, user action, and expected result. Code with AI: Write Velo Code can help, but better input usually means better code.

Prompt ingredients

  • The feature goal.
  • Element IDs or names.
  • Collection names and fields.
  • What triggers the code.
  • What should happen after success.
  • What should happen after an error.

Example prompt

Write Velo code for a Wix page where a visitor selects a category from dropdown #categoryDropdown, clicks #filterButton, and repeater #serviceRepeater shows only items from collection Services where category matches the dropdown value.

Common prompt mistakes

  • Leaving out element IDs.
  • Not saying whether data should be read or written.
  • Asking for a complete app when one function is needed.
  • Ignoring permissions or member roles.
  • Not describing the error state.

Review checklist

  • Does the code use the right imports?
  • Do element IDs match the Wix editor?
  • Are collection names exact?
  • Is the code placed in the right file?
  • Is there a test path for failure cases?
