At the 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) held in Shanghai on July 16, Baidu Intelligent Cloud's no-code application platform, Miaoda, launched its version 3.5. From the "One Sentence, Make an App" of the Create Conference this year to the "Simpler and More Comprehensive" at this WAIC, Miaoda has remained consistent in its direction: continuously lowering the development threshold and infinitely expanding application capabilities. A set of data highlights its scale — the platform has served over 35 million users, created 3.5 million commercially valuable applications, and nearly 200,000 people use these applications daily to solve real-world problems.

The key points of version 3.5 are "simpler" and "more comprehensive" happening simultaneously. Simpler means that even those who don't know code, SEO, or iOS development can complete the entire cycle from creation to delivery. More comprehensive means that every generated application can be favored by search engines, have shared backends and multi-environment guarantees, reach more terminals, and carry more imagination. Version 3.0 pushed users onto the "Everyone is a Creator" step, while version 3.5 takes another big step forward: applications can be found by more people, Apps can be directly packaged for iPhones, data can be shared across multiple ends, a skill can be made with just one sentence, backend development and online environments are isolated, and resources can be flexibly configured as needed.

Search traffic used to block many creators. Traditional SEO optimization requires understanding professional knowledge such as keyword strategies, page structure, and meta tag configuration, which is too high a barrier for most people. The built-in SEO Agent in Miaoda 3.5 automates this professional capability, equivalent to providing each creator with a dedicated search optimization expert available at any time. It checks elements like the title, description, and keywords of each page, identifies issues affecting search performance, and translates professional terminology into easily understandable suggestions, such as "page description is too short," "title does not reflect core content," or "search summary is incomplete." More practically, the Agent not only diagnoses but also fixes problems directly: users can click to fix individual issues or use one-click repair to handle all automatically fixable items, and after fixing, they can recheck and see the optimization effects in real time. Before launching, users can directly preview the page's title, summary, and link display in search results, assessing whether it is attractive to avoid vague or generic default text after launch.

iOS delivery process was another long-standing barrier for developers. Traditionally, it required a Mac, Xcode installed, an Apple Developer account registered, and manual management of certificates and signatures. Miaoda 3.5's iOS packaging capability compresses the entire build, test, and distribution process into a single service. Users without an Apple Developer account can take the free route: the platform generates an IPA file online, which can be downloaded and installed on an iPhone following instructions, suitable for personal experience, function verification, and Demo demonstration. Users with an Apple Developer Program account can take the paid route: after configuring the API Key, the platform automatically completes certificate applications, online building, and signing packaging, without manually logging into the Apple Developer Portal. It supports Ad Hoc real device testing (device scanning registration, automatic generation of installation links), TestFlight internal testing distribution, and App Store listing — the application package is uploaded to App Store Connect, and after Apple's review, it can be officially listed.

When an application needs to serve multiple terminals, such as the user side and merchant backend of an e-commerce platform, or the employee side and management backend of enterprise management, each terminal independently building a backend means repeated development costs and data silos. Miaoda 3.5 supports multiple applications (Web, App, mini programs, etc.) sharing the same backend database, truly achieving multi-terminal data linkage, allowing one business scenario to correspond to one data loop. When creating a new application, you can directly select an existing project as a shared backend, automatically reusing its database, interface, and storage capabilities, without repeating the setup, and quickly generate Web, App, mini program, or management backend applications based on the same backend. Each terminal has its own independent front-end page, which can be independently designed and iterated according to its characteristics, while all data is uniformly managed. In terms of management, the project list now includes a "Shared Backend" category, and all shared backend applications are automatically grouped into the same directory for centralized display, making the backend operation status clearly visible, and enabling a single click to activate the keep-alive service; the editor's top can also switch between different terminal applications without exiting the current project, seamlessly switching between Web, App, and mini programs.

Official skills have already covered scenarios such as AI tools, payments, videos, voice, images, and searches, but each user's needs are always unique. Miaoda 3.5 brings custom skills, where saying your needs in the chat box allows the platform to quickly generate a personalized skill. There are three ways to create: first, choose the "Skill Creation" project type on the homepage and say your needs to generate directly, or in any project, propose your needs through conversation and @ an existing skill to modify it according to your requirements; second, quickly import by uploading a skill package, directly upload a .zip file or SKILL.md to complete it without manual configuration; third, connect to a third-party API, paste the API documentation link into the chat box, and the platform will automatically parse the web content and generate a callable skill, or directly paste the API description, including request method, parameters, response format, etc., and the platform can understand and create it, avoiding the complex process of understanding authentication and interface debugging. The generated skills can be saved in the skill center and then directly called in any project using the @ method, turning each accumulated method into reusable assets.

Changing the database during development and accidentally affecting the online business is the most common pain point in AI development applications. Miaoda 3.5's multi-environment database capability isolates the development environment and the online environment, taking developers out of the state of "developing cautiously and going live anxiously" and bringing them into a state of "confidently developing, safely releasing, and easily rolling back." When creating an application, you can choose single environment or multi-environment mode as needed: in the single environment, development and online share the same database, changes are synchronized and take effect immediately, suitable for demos, prototypes, and lightweight personal applications; in the multi-environment, both use separate databases, supporting independent development, testing, and release without interfering with the online business, suitable for e-commerce malls, corporate websites and management backends, CRM, ERP, and other production environments.

The multi-environment mode also has a thoughtful design — when the development environment synchronizes the data structure to the online environment and there is a conflict, SQL execution error, or storage structure incompatibility, the AI Agent will automatically analyze the cause of the failure, translate the error message into understandable explanations, and provide a one-click repair solution. Clicking AI Repair can continue the release, and the repair is completely free, without consuming Miaodas points. When the project stage changes, the multi-environment can roll back to the single environment. At the same time, after each version change in the development environment (such as release, save version), the system automatically records the current version's database structure (Schema) and business data (Data), generating a version snapshot. If the new version encounters incompatible interfaces or functional abnormalities, it can quickly and accurately roll back to a stable version without rebuilding the environment or manually repairing data.

Backend resource needs vary significantly at different stages. Miaoda 3.5 introduces a backend resource grading capability, offering multiple packages including basic, small capacity, medium capacity, large capacity, and extra-large capacity, covering dimensions such as concurrency, database storage, and file storage, suitable for projects from lightweight individuals to enterprise-level high-concurrency businesses. It supports upgrading as the business grows, with database capacity, file storage, and concurrency capabilities increasing synchronously without data migration or backend reconstruction. Resource usage data is visualized in real time, and the system automatically reminds and guides expansion when the quota approaches the limit, ensuring that both lightweight projects and large-scale businesses can find appropriate configurations.
