Can I use bolt.diy to modify / add on to a project I started in VS code using cline?

I’m using python and a Postgres db to develop an ai voice assistant that closely follows a script. Now I need to develop a chat interface to create/test/modify my scripts. Can I use bolt.diy to create the front end? I thought I had read that it only works for projects created in bolt.
Separately, would bolt.diy have been a good choice to create the back end? My impression is that this platform is focused on web tech - I.e. js, typescript, etc. please update me on bolt.diy capabilities. Thanks!

Love your use case!

Yes, bolt.diy would be a great choice to create the frontend for your app! You can create frontends from scratch just like with bolt.new.

For the backend, I would recommend using an AI coding assistant like Windsurf or Cursor.

I am using bolt.diy, windsurf and cline with a little testing of Project IDX (with Cline) thrown in for good measure. Using github desktop to keep my ducks aligned. It’s not seamless but it seems to be useful. Horses for courses!
