Course
Build a professional frontend prototype with Lovable, Bolt, or v0
In this series, I’ll walk you through the step-by-step process I use to build the first version of a Lovable prototype, one that meets all my requirements for the design system and the user flows that I want for my MVP. We’ll iterate on a Product Requirements Document (PRD) as we go, and by the end, we’ll have crafted the ultimate prompt for Lovable, ensuring your very first auto-generated prototype is exactly on target.
