Build a first version from a brief
Set up Lovable, decide what it may train on, turn Joan's brief into a page and check it line by line.
Meet Joan and her repair café
Joan Pike runs Kettleby Repair Café: once a month, volunteers help people fix lamps, bikes and clothes instead of throwing them away. She wants a web page where people can see the next date and book a slot, and she's asked you to build it. Kettleby, the café and its people are fictional, made for this course. Lovable builds web apps from a description: you type what you want in a chat on the left, and a working preview appears on the right. Lovable is free to start, with a limited number of requests: the free plan has 5 build credits a day, up to 30 a month, and they come back at midnight UTC. Many requests cost less than a credit; bigger ones cost more. Paid plans are billed by Lovable, and myoh Plus doesn't include a Lovable plan. Example replies in these lessons are authored illustrations, not recordings of Lovable; yours will differ.
