For those interested, this is the app I had it generate. I've only had to manually tweak a few things that the AI agent couldn't figure out, but it's mostly done this based off of my instructions alone.
It's playable, it works, but I wouldn't call it terribly fun just yet. Still, it gives a reasonable idea of what lovable can do.

The source code can be found on GitHub.
To summarize, it's really cool technology, and being able to immediately publish your app to have people in the real world try it is a stroke of genius.
However, unless Lovable's hosting platform is the right fit for your existing and future applications, you're setting yourself up for growing pains when you do find market fit.
That might be an acceptable trade-off, but it's a trade-off all the same.
That means that moving from prototype to product means you suddenly have to make a lot of decisions, that ideally you'd have made in the initial phases of development.
The upside of something like lovable is that you can get something working quickly to gauge if there's a market fit for what you're making.
The downside is that scaling up will be a painful and costly exercise, unless you're willing to stick to lovable as a platform.
I can see this being a great starting point for a commercial application, assuming your team knows the technologies being used, or you find people that do.
Although lovable offers a free tier of cloud hosting for backend (database, servers etc.) you'd have to ask yourself if this is the infrastructure you'd choose if you had that option.
That's the primary negative of this platform, you get a lot of architectural decisions made for you that are hard to reverse.
For my prototype it's been getting harder and harder to get the change I want, and being more specific in my prompts hasn't really yielded the expected return.
To make real progress I'd have to switch to a paid plan, or dive into the codebase that the AI has crafted for me, or both.
Right now the former seems not the right investment for a toy project, and the latter leaves me with an architecture I didn't choose in a framework I don't know on a platform I don't control.
My experiment with Lovable has come to an end. I've been seeing diminishing returns for changes, and been burning through my (free) credits a lot quicker.
It's a fantastic tool for prototyping. Getting an approximation of your app (or game) up with just a few prompts feels very powerful, and almost magical.
Iterating on that prototype solely through prompts can be hit-and-miss. Sometimes it works great, other times the instruction gets misinterpreted, or partially ignored.

2026년 본인이 주로 사용하는 앱 개발 스택을 공유한 글로, 50만+ 사용자와 다수의 B2B 앱을 만든 사례에서 Cursor AI를 핵심 도구로 사용하고, Cursor가 못할 때는 Claude Code를 보조로 쓰며 Framer와 Lovable로 랜딩 페이지를 제작한다고 설명합니다. 개발 생산성·배포 관련 툴 채택 사례로서 유용한 레퍼런스입니다.
Almost out of the top-off credits I bought to improve #FediDeck. Looking for some sustaining monthly sponsors as well as one-time donations. This app is quickly becoming something of a labor of love. I'm really enjoying the prompting and the iteration. It just cost $.
Any help would be appreciated: https://ko-fi-.com/fedideck
Guess that Schnoot!!! Who could this be??

Chia sẻ hành trình từ không code đến phát triển ứng dụng kết hợp AI: Bắt đầu bằng **Bubble** (2021), sau đó chuyển sang **Lovable** (2024) để chủ động kiểm soát code, tích hợp GitHub, Supabase. Khi cần tùy biến cao, dùng **Cursor** và **Vercel** cho hosting. Workflow: dùng AI (ChatGPT/Claude) để lên ý tưởng → viết tài liệu → tạo prompt → build-repeat. Mục tiêu tiếp: học phát triển ứng dụng di động iOS. 🏔️ #NoCode #AIML #PhatTrienPhanMem #Lovable #Cursor

@T3Z ja es ist quasi Vibe-Coding.
Ich bin da auch kritisch, vor allem weil der KI-Anteil sehr hoch zu sein scheint. Es ist hier ziemlich transparent, was KI-generiert ist. Der Bot hat etwa 10x mehr Commits und 30x mehr hinzugefügte Zeilen.

Is #lovable viable for serious projects? Looking for post-MVP experiences.
Built a SaaS MVP with Lovable or similar AI-first tools? How was the jump from idea to product? What limits appeared as you scaled? When did friction start? How do you assess security (auth, data, perms)? What felt “magical” at first but became a bottleneck? I’m planning a real project and want honest, real-world takes. #lovabledev #lovableai
Lovable’s rapid growth produces one of Europe’s youngest self-made billionaires. The Stockholm-based AI startup is now valued at $6.6 billion in spite of being plagued by technical issues.

I vibe coded this Freezer Tracker (so you know what's in your sneaky freezer!) initially the hard way with Codex and VS Studio. Refined it using Lovable and finally used Claude Code to improve and secure it. We use it daily - you can build a household, you can use dictate instead of fiddly typing, you can create your own categories. I've really enjoyed the process of solving such a niche personal challenge! #vibecoding #claudecode #hardfork #forkiverse #lovable #claude @Casey @kevin @pj

@jaredwhite I love the idea of Codeberg. I wish #Lovable would allow for syncing to that.
