Syncing Lovable’s code with Cursor via Github
Syncing Lovable’s code with Cursor via Github
Lovable lets you export the code it generates, so you can use it wherever you like. This is a powerful feature that will allow us to move the code into Cursor, our go-to tool for building anything we need, including the backend, with full flexibility. We will explain, why I believe this combination of Lovable and Cursor is the cheat code that will enable you to level-up your vibe coding game! To do this, you’ll need a GitHub account where your app’s code will be stored in a dedicated repository. You’ll also need to create a Cursor account and download the desktop app (Cursor only works locally). I’ll guide you through the local export process step by step.
