What is Lovable?
React-oriented apps, Supabase integrations, managed cloud or external deployment. Lovable uses React + TypeScript as its primary stack, with Supabase for backend services.
Production Checklist for Lovable
Every Lovable app needs these production essentials before going live:
- Code ownership: Export your code to a GitHub repository you control
- Environment variables: Move all secrets out of client code
- Database migrations: Set up versioned schema changes
- Authentication: Configure OAuth callbacks for your production domain
- Monitoring: Add error tracking before your first real user
- Backups: Enable automated backups and test restore
Common Lovable Production Mistakes
- Leaving code only in the builder's platform with no export
- Using builder-provided URLs instead of owning your domain
- Not separating preview and production environments
- Skipping webhook verification for payments
- Forgetting to add monitoring before launch
