Anything vs v0
Anything (formerly Create.xyz) and v0 both generate UI from text, but have diverged significantly. Anything has evolved into a full app builder with mobile deployment and an autonomous AI agent. v0 remains focused on high-quality React/Next.js components. Anything is broader; v0 is deeper for React.
