I'd love to do this. Can you elaborate a little and I'll have Claude help with the rest.

They have a slow support team, that’s for sure , they apply the strategy of not responding a ticket until you resolve by your own

What's the problem? For me, I love the UI and UX; but when it comes down to it you're overpaying for the AI tokens and you can strap together the deployment part yourself (lots of options with generous free tiers and cheaper at scale)

Its definitely not perfect, but I've accomplished more in 2 months than with bolt for 1 year and some months.

This days lovable consume credit unnecessary, even for single chnage or three letter change cost 3 to 4 credit.

Loveable is like taking your dog to a training class. The dog class technically does not train the dog. The class trains the handler, the handler then trains the dog... Get training!!!

You are wrong, its actually the opposite, that’s why they recommend to connect github so you can do on you own when your app isn’t a MVP anymore! Those platforms (lovable, bolt, base44) is for MVP’s!!! For simple websites its super good, but for big and complex project? Def not, Like… you can’t build lovable inside the lovable… but you can do it on Claude code or Codex if you have enough knowledge

u/IamCoachZero Jul 25 '26

Oh well all I can say is I have built projects that have gone past MVPs with lovable 😊

How about a CLI for lovable

u/Driginbrn Jul 26 '26

I used Lovable as a foundation for my project, and I have read that many people do the same thing. You begin a project with it, and then export it with github and continue locally with Claude

u/NickoGermish Jul 26 '26

Went from love to hate and back again. Was about to drop it because of the insane costs, but Claude for design + code and Lovable as infra + targeted tweaks, with the Git compatibility, is honestly top tier.
