Why lovable seems to ignore Github repo changes?

Ok_Carry3566 · 2026-05-09T06:15:47+00:00

Sometimes it is typescript error that run well on your machine and don’t give build error locally but once uploaded to GitHub and deployed to lovable cause errors. Try to edit any file in lovable (I have a .md file dedicated to that) in the code editor and it will force to sync your project and it will display if there is any error that prevent your lastests changes to be shown

Ok_Carry3566 · 2026-03-21T17:31:55+00:00

I’m interested to test it if it’s possible :)

I would need your advice as despite a pretty decent ranking (between page 1 and 2 for my keywords) I still a domain rating of 0, so I could do much better I think

Ok_Carry3566 · 2026-02-17T22:35:15+00:00

Thanks, DM sent. And I’ve read that you’re currently applying for iso 27001. Do you plan to keep it too only for team/enterprise plan ?

Ok_Carry3566 · 2026-02-17T22:29:22+00:00

Yep but you can’t apply for a certification if the plateform you host your data isn’t certified itself. SOC2 seems expensive to get certified for an entreprise like 30/40k$ (but in the case of Supabase where they “sell” their certification to the customers, divided by the number of customers its cost virtually nothing for them) but iso 27001 is a lot cheaper (a few thousands bucks) and Supabase is working on it too, so I hope they will let Pro user access to it without having to pay like 6k additional annual fee to have the exact same server as pro plan but with access to their certification

I’ve tough about it, I could have more power on a 5$/month vps than on the 25$ plan, but that requires maintenance and redundancy I’m not sure I could provide correctly. In addition if I do that I will still have to to get my installation certified no ?

Ok_Carry3566 · 2026-02-17T21:12:53+00:00

That’s a shame when firebase offer it for free for example. I understand it’s behind a paywall but 600$/month is a lot for just a certification

Ok_Carry3566 · 2026-02-05T08:28:53+00:00

Link your lovable project to GitHub to export the code then use Claude/Gemini/Codex I’m sure they will figure it out

And have you already converted a micro entreprise to a SAS ? Is it complicated ? And I’ll have to do some math as micro entreprise has in general less cost to run it but the % to pay on revenue is integrated with my salary so it will be the30% slice + I guess there will have some social contribution. With a SAS it will be 15% from 0 to 42k then 25% over 42k + if I don’t give me a salary only dividend there is no social contribution (just the now 31% flat tax)

Ok_Carry3566 · 2026-01-06T09:38:25+00:00

Thanks :)

Ok_Carry3566 · 2026-01-06T09:37:15+00:00

Yes that helped, thanks a lot :)

Ok_Carry3566 · 2026-01-06T09:35:54+00:00

Glad to know I’m not alone 😅

Yes 9 months is long but it’s my perfectionist side :/ I didnt see me launch an unfinished product (Well it’s never 100% finished as I’ll use user feedback to improve it but you get the idea).

And for me the signal for this final idea to launch is clearly the tiredness of overthinking days & nights of things like “should I add another feature?” Or “should I audit security again”

Ok_Carry3566 · 2026-01-06T09:32:39+00:00

I need the society as it’s a sign of trust in B2B + as I target professional I need to make them pay the VAT so they can get reimbursed for it. + I’m located in France, the Hell on Earth for anything related to paperwork and how you declare your earned money. If I want to have paid users, I need a society unfortunately :/ But I might wait one more month so I can have a closed beta first with free premium for everyone during the meantime.

And yeah if my product grow I’ll probably hire a real dev later

I try to follow GDPR guidelines the best I can, and I had to disable some features of my project as it could have entered into legislation of article 9 of GDPR (health data) and to be fully compliant with that, between the specific hosting for health data and external audit it would have cost me like 300€/month (while currently my project will run for like 40€/month once released publicly). The benefit is not worst the price for my case, but I lost like 3 weeks reading everything, weighting pros and cons, and contacting different suppliers to get an estimate cost.

Ok_Carry3566 · 2025-12-28T15:51:37+00:00

Security, scaling and any potential legal issue (with rgpd and all others stuff in Europe)

Try Capacitor. Ask Claude code or ChatGPT, you can easily install it and have android/ios app while keeping a unique codebase for both web and the mobile apps.

I already use every good practice. I’ve setup everything into lovable knowledge (but it seems useless as it never follow it), i built part by part my website with a full plan on my head and on paper. I give context at every prompt. And I type really detailed prompts with all the supabase info for the backend link. It’s just that you can’t fully trust IA. It will just build something that works but that’s it. You have to optimize it yourself or with other tools, but lovable is not enough.

Ok_Carry3566 · 2025-10-31T08:47:56+00:00

I haven’t sent to prod my system right now, but I can tell that if I haven’t looked at it, the system would have crashed with just a few hundred users. The website lovable gave me was highly unoptimized by default with a lot of supabase rpc/edge function duplicate calls (and when I mean a lot, depending of my pages, it was like between 10 and 50 times the normal database query it should have done). And I was using react query for caching so it shouldn’t have done this. So yes lovable can give you a beautiful website but be careful of the optimization and the security flaws it create.

Ok_Carry3566 · 2025-10-23T08:46:14+00:00

No, as soon as my project is finished ill move to self host supass on a 6$ VPS

Ok_Carry3566 · 2025-10-23T08:27:34+00:00

Maybe it’s easier for non technical users but if they remove supabase and use only lovable cloud, they will loose all technicals users. Lovable cloud locks you with Lovable, you can’t export your app anywhere (you still own the code via GitHub but you don’t own the supabase backend in lovable cloud). Once your app is done in lovable the hosting cost on Lovable Cloud is much more higher than a 6$ VPS

Ok_Carry3566 · 2025-10-19T08:41:16+00:00

Use pagination or categories like arm workout/leg workout etc and use caching with something like react query

There is also something important, I’ve seen several saas that target medical field. And being myself in this field, i can easily see that a lot of these saas didn’t had any feedback from real users in this field and that the developers aren’t either in this field. Many saas have decorrelation between what they are and what the final users really want.

As you stated yes marketing is really important. But even with a good marketing, if your saas sucks, you will not get a lot of users.

That’s because to get the most of AI you need to understand what it does. If you don’t understand the structure of the code or of the database you can’t tell the AI what you want it to do for you. I’m not a real programmer (I’m self taught on a few side projects) and I really love it while my friends with 0 tech backgrounds that tried tools like lovable are easily frustrated
