⚙️ Technical Architecture & Model Choices

Mixture‑of‑Experts Engine

Qwen 3 235B routes each token through specialist experts, delivering GPT‑4‑class reasoning while keeping latency low (~1.2 tkn/s in public beta).

KV Cache Compression

Multi‑Head Latent Attention (MLA) cuts KV‑cache size by 92 %, enabling 64 K context even on modest GPUs.

Model Selector

Model	Params	Best For	Avg. Latency
Qwen 3 235B	235 B	Pixel‑perfect UIs, heavy logic	~7.8 s first token
Qwen 2.5 Max	72 B	General prototyping	~3.2 s
Qwen Turbo	14 B	Idea sketches, chat‑based tweaks	<1 s

📑 Quick‑Start (5 Steps)

Create a project in Qwen Chat → choose WebDev Agent.
Select model (Turbo ↔ Max ↔ 235B).
Enable Thinking Mode for multi‑step builds.
Prompt: "Generate a Notion‑style notes app with dark mode & markdown support."
Edit & export ZIP or stream via API.

Power tip: Add colour tokens, breakpoints and third‑party libraries (chakra‑ui, supabase) right in the prompt.

📊 Benchmarks & Speed Tests

Scenario	Lines of Code	Build Time	Post‑Prompt Edits Needed
SaaS billing dashboard	1,220	11 s	Minor CSS
Twitter clone (feed+DM)	1,870	15 s	Add rate‑limit middleware
Portfolio + CMS blog	640	6 s	None

Data source: internal load test, RTX 4090 (cloud) + Qwen 2.5 Max.

🔗 Workflow Integration & Deployment

Local Dev via CLI

npm i -g @qwen/webdev-cli
qwen-webdev "Build a Kanban board in Next.js"

CI/CD Hook

Pipe JSON spec ↔ GitHub Action → trigger WebDev build → deploy to Vercel or Alibaba Cloud OSS.

Database & Auth Stubs

Outputs include Prisma models + JWT auth handler—plug into MySQL, Postgres or OSS‑based ApsaraDB.

🔐 Security, Licensing & Compliance

MIT licence on generated code—commercial‑safe.
Sandboxed preview—no server‑side eval, XSS‑safe iframe.
GDPR‑ready: no user input logged after session if you opt‑out.

🗺️ Roadmap & Community

Next on the public roadmap: multi‑file export, one‑click Docker deploy, GraphQL resolver generation, community template marketplace.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Does it support Vue or Svelte?

Yes—specify framework in prompt. React is default.

Can I fine‑tune the model on my design system?

Beta feature via OpenRouter—upload Figma tokens + sample components, then reuse the tuned checkpoint.

Is there an enterprise SLA?

Alibaba Cloud offers a paid SLA tier with dedicated GPUs & on‑prem deployment.
