Lovable writes front ends in React and TypeScript, bundled with Vite and styled with Tailwind CSS and shadcn/ui components. Most projects lean on Supabase for the database, sign-in, file storage and edge functions. Because Lovable can sync a project with a GitHub repository in both directions, a developer can pick up the real source rather than a screenshot of it.
Typical Lovable listings describe an app that demos beautifully but leaks or breaks under real users. Tables may lack row level security policies, so one customer can read another's records. Password reset emails point at the preview domain, sign-up stalls once email confirmation is switched on, or an edge function fails without logging anything. Long prompt histories also leave near-duplicate components and unused files behind.
Connect the project to GitHub if you have not already, then confirm the repository contains the latest version. Run the Supabase RLS checker so you can describe the access situation accurately. Decide whether you will keep prompting in Lovable after the developer starts, since edits from both sides land on the same branch. The page on a Lovable app not working lists symptoms worth mentioning in your listing.

AI app builders are excellent for prototypes. These are the gaps that usually appear when a prototype meets real users, real data and a real domain, and how to close them.
ReadUse team invites and limited roles instead of shared passwords, service by service, and know exactly how to remove access and rotate keys when the work ends.
ReadMost Lovable apps that break do so for a short list of reasons: auth settings, database policies, keys, deploys, edge functions or payments. Here is how to narrow it down.
ReadSupabase auth and RLS problems show up as login loops, missing emails, empty pages or data leaks. Most come from a handful of settings and policy patterns.
ReadYes. Once the project is connected to GitHub, a developer can clone the repository, run it locally with Node.js and push changes back. Lovable picks up commits on the synced branch, so both sides see the same code.
No. The Supabase project is a separate account and database. Invite the developer to your Supabase organisation as a member rather than sharing your login, and keep ownership yourself.
