Building in Lovable

A demonstration walkthrough by Mollie Amkraut Mueller showing how to build a personal AI tool discovery board using the Lovable platform, with ChatGPT used as a prompt/idea partner. The clip covers initial prompt creation, Lovable’s first-pass build (cards, layout, placeholder images), an in-product chat mode that avoids build credits, and publishing to a Lovable domain. The narrator highlights upvoting, spacing/layout tweaks, and the platform’s ease-of-use for rapid prototyping.

Okay, so now that I'm happy with my prompt from ChatGPT, I am literally just going to copy paste that exact language into this starting box in Lovable. So as a reminder, I want to build a personal AI tool discovery board. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Lovable has come back in, giving me some positive feedback. Thanks. Lovable telling me what it sees, this kind of summarizing what the design will feature. And now it's getting to work. Now, this very first prompt that you give it when it first creates your product, this one takes the longest. So this will probably take maybe 2 minutes, 2 to 3 minutes for it to come up with its first pass. Let's see, what's the first pass gonna look like? Molly's AI Playground. Wow. I love that it put these two things up at the top. That's smart. Cause those are the actions that I would want people to take. So I love that it did that. And look at this. It's got my cards laid out. These are placeholder images. I like that it formatted it with, like, the one sentence here and then the quote and then the tags, and then the check it out. Gonna have to work on some spacing things here. Hope that shows you the magic of this tool. I think what's gonna be kind of fun for this is upvoting. And I'm curious if Lovable can do upvoting. So there was plenty that you could do just with what Lovable is telling you what's next. And if you're ever stuck, you can literally say, hey, level, what should I do next? In this case? Because I'm curious if it can do this upvoting feature that I'm interested in, I'm gonna ask it. And so when I ask Lovable something, I come down here and I click chat. Now, this is an important feature if you become a routine lovable user, because this chat feature enables you to chat to Lovable, like how you chat to ChatGPT without using up your build credits. And so if I don't have this and I tell it to do something, it will make edits, it will build a part of the product, and that's how the payments work. The simplest way to think about it is it charges you for every build it does. And so if I don't want it to build yet, and I just want to have a conversation with it about how we proceed, I turn on this chat feature. Here's what I'm thinking for the implementation, and. And now it gives me its proposed plan. And so I'll kind of read through this and honestly, like 9 out of 10 times or even more, you can just say yes to what level is suggesting because it knows more than you do about how to build this. Here it is. It just appeared now. It's got this little. Oh, I like this little animation here. Oh, thanks for the upvote. Your vote helps others discover great tools. That's a nice sweet little thing that it thought to add there can upvote that one. We still got to fix the spacing here. This is out of whack. Let's look at it over here. Yeah, still out of whack. But look at that. It's telling me it can do it. Hopefully this has given you a sense of just how easy it is to get going with whatever your idea is. With a combo of ChatGPT as your thought partner and lovable as your doer. And if and when you are ready to publish your product, you can just come over here and before you even connect your own domain, you can publish this and start sharing it with this lovable domain that they've provided you. So super, super easy, super fun. I hope this enables some creativity for you.
