Google Integrates Opal Into Gemini Web App for No-Code Mini Apps

Plain-language descriptions become editable, step‑based workflows that users can save as reusable Gems.

Overview

  • Opal’s capabilities now surface inside the Gemini web app via the Gems manager as an experimental offering from Google Labs.
  • Users describe the app they want, and Opal chains prompts, models, and tools to generate a mini app with a dedicated interface.
  • A new text‑to‑steps view converts prompts into clear, editable lists, making it easier to understand and modify each workflow.
  • Creations can be refined in the embedded visual editor or handed off to the Advanced Editor at opal.google.com for deeper customization.
  • Saved mini apps persist in the Gems page for reuse, though Google notes these Labs-powered Gems may not appear in Apps Activity and can make mistakes.
