"[Wrapper] just sort of means that it feels less thoughtful. It feels like you're giving this little package around what was built. As opposed to what it really means is, 'I'm going to understand the customer's problem,' " said Andreessen Horowitz partner Bryan Kim. "I'm going to marry this and deliver a solution to what you're trying to achieve."
Wrappers have even changed the way Silicon Valley builds, ushering in the era of vibe-coding. With an app like Cursor, one of the fastest-growing startups ever, anyone can develop an app without a degree or years of coding expertise.
