Does OverSkill have a drag-and-drop or WYSIWYG editor?

Short answer: no full drag-and-drop page builder. Small edits — text, color, alignment — you can click and change directly. Everything bigger goes through the AI.

Short answer: no. OverSkill isn't a drag-and-drop page builder like Webflow, Wix, or Squarespace. There's no canvas where you drag boxes around and resize them freely.

Here's what you actually have, and how to get the same result a different way.

What you CAN click and change directly

Click the Edit toggle (the cursor icon) in the chat panel — or hit Cmd+E / Ctrl+E — to turn on the Visual Editor. With it on, click any element in the preview to:

  • Edit text in place — click, type, done. No prompt needed.
  • Change colors — text, background, and border color pickers appear right in the toolbar.
  • Adjust typography — font weight, size, and text alignment.
  • Swap an image — pick a replacement from your asset library.
  • Delete an element — remove it entirely.
  • Nudge order — move an element up or down among its siblings.

This is the closest thing to a WYSIWYG editor in OverSkill, and it covers a lot of small, one-off tweaks fast. Turn it off the same way (Edit toggle or Cmd+E) when you're done — it's a mode, not a permanent state.

What it's NOT — and where the AI takes over

The Visual Editor doesn't do layout: no free dragging, no resizing by handle, no dropping in new components from a palette. For anything structural — new sections, new pages, rearranging a whole layout, adding a feature — you describe it to the AI instead. That's not a workaround; it's the actual design tool in OverSkill.

Small text and design edits via the AI Prompt

If you'd rather not use the Visual Editor (or the change is broader than one element), just describe it in chat. A few real examples:

Changing specific copy:

Change the hero headline to Build your first app in 10 minutes

Small style tweaks:

Make the Get Started button bigger and change it to a solid green

Whole-app restyling:

Make the whole app feel more premium — bigger photos, less text, more whitespace

Spacing/layout nudges:

Add more space between the pricing cards on the Pricing page

Font/theme changes — describe them in chat. See Changing colors, fonts, and theme. (A visual theme picker is in limited release and not yet available to everyone.)

The AI applies these directly to your app's code — same result as a WYSIWYG drag, just described instead of dragged.

Which one should I use?

You want to... Use
Fix a typo, swap one color, replace one image Visual Editor (click the element)
Change several things at once, or something structural AI Prompt (describe it in chat)
Restyle the whole app — colors, fonts, mood AI Prompt (describe it in chat)
Add a new page, section, or feature AI Prompt only — the Visual Editor can't create new elements

How to ask the AI for changes

Better prompts get better results. The short guide to writing requests the AI nails on the first try.

Where did plan mode go?

The Plan / Build toggle is gone. To talk something through without changing your app, just say so — "don't change anything yet" works.

Version history and rollbacks

Every change is a saved version. Roll back, restore, or compare any version with a click.
