What is Lovable?
Lovable is an AI app builder. You describe the app you want in plain language and it generates a working web app, with the interface, logic and backend pieces, that you can preview right away.
You keep refining it through chat or visual edits, then publish it. The code is real and yours: you can sync it to GitHub and continue in your own editor when you need more control.
