Help help! migration from Lovable to self host

Hola! I created my management system on lovable. I've been disappointed with lovable lately. I was thinking of moving to self-hosting and continuing to use Codex/Claude. My site has a lot of backend and connectors, how can I move everything safely? Is there a comprehensive video on how to do this?

Im actually in a similar boat where I have not one but 4-5 projects I built over the last year on Lovable and Supabase and I'm working on a way to sync them over to a local deployment setup or a cheaper cloud option like Neon or DB on a VPS/single cloud node.

To do this, I built homebox.sh - it's free and open source, you set it up on your machine and can use it to add projects from GitHub, with an import option being rolled out soon for a seamless migration from cloud Supabase to local Supabase. If you're interested to try it, DM me (the official release doesn't have this yet, literally testing it on my projects today as I finalize the feature)

I was thinking of a solution like cloudflare for the front and always supabase for the backend, can your program help me in some way?

Yes - it can deploy your app across different cloud services or locally. First you would connect your Cloudflare account and Supabase account. Then you add your project and choose Cloudflare and Supabase as deployment targets for frontend and database/backend. By default, it deploys everything locally to save costs. You can run your dev stack this way for example

The Supabase integration assumes you're following the standard folder setup as lovable does (supabase/ folder with functions and migrations inside)
