Lovable (formerly GPT Engineer) turns plain-English descriptions into deployable full-stack applications. Features visual drag-and-drop editing, Supabase database integration, GitHub sync, and one-click deployment to Vercel or Netlify. The fastest path from idea to working web app — no local dev environment required. Best suited for MVPs, prototypes, and client demos. Panel verdict: 2/3 Ship — impressive for rapid prototyping, but code quality degrades on complex apps.

Storybook is the standard tool for developing, documenting, and testing UI components in isolation. Supports React, Vue, Angular, and more. Essential for design systems.
Reviewer scorecard
“Best MVP builder on the market right now. The Supabase integration means you get a real database, not just a frontend. GitHub sync seals the deal.”
“Non-negotiable for any serious component library. Visual testing, docs, and interaction testing in one place.”
“The demos are impressive but dig deeper and you'll find spaghetti code, missing error handling, and no tests. Fine for demos, dangerous for production.”
“Setup can be painful and builds are slow, but the alternative — no component isolation — is worse.”
“I built a client project prototype in under an hour. They were blown away. Even if I rewrite the code later, the speed-to-wow is worth the subscription alone.”
“The best way to browse and understand a design system. Addons for accessibility and responsive testing are invaluable.”
