Lovable just dropped a huge update — Lovable Cloud — and it feels like a big shift in how we build software with AI.
I spent some time testing it out, and here’s what stood out:
- One-click backend → no need to connect Supabase or other services, Lovable sets it up instantly
- AI features powered by Gemini for free → you don’t even need your own Gemini API key
- Lovable Contest → they’re running a community challenge where you can win mystery prizes by building and sharing apps
- Full-stack in minutes → I even used the update to build a Lovable clone inside Lovable itself
What I really like about this release is how it lowers the barrier for non-technical builders — you can go from an idea → full app with backend + AI features faster than ever.
I recorded a walkthrough of all the updates, plus the clone build, so you can see the new features in action
Curious to hear — do you think tools like this are going to replace traditional no-code platforms, or just live alongside them?
