Introduction
Lovable was built to empower anyone—technical or not—to bring ideas to life. But sometimes the best innovations come from Lovable’s own community. Enter Rezaul: a self-professed “lazy typer” who took it upon himself to create a Chrome extension that tackles real pain points he saw in day-to-day Lovable use. From a built-in Prompt Library to a Voice Input feature, from SEO meta tag generation to Project Management and Smart Color Picker—Rezaul has assembled an impressive toolkit to enhance your Lovable.dev workspace.
TL;DR
- Meet the Creator: Rezaul migrated from Bangladesh to Australia, works as a network engineer, and develops software on weekends.
- Discovery of Lovable: Frustrated with traditional no-code builders, he found a hidden gem in Lovable’s AI-driven approach.
- Why the Extension?: Repeated user requests—like robust project organization, voice input, SEO tools—inspired Rezaul to build a solution.
- Next on the Roadmap: Automating Android app generation straight from a Lovable project’s GitHub repo with Capacitor.
From Music Startups to Lovable Power User
S: Hi Rezaul, thank you for joining the call. First off, who are you and what’s your background?
R: My name is Rezaul. I moved from Bangladesh to Australia in 2015. I completed a Bachelor’s in IT here, graduated right after the pandemic, and started working full-time as a network engineer. While my day job focuses on networking, I’ve always been drawn to coding and building small-scale startup ideas. Over the last decade or so, I’ve tried my hand at everything from a music platform called “Beast Bangla” to exploring no-code solutions like Flutter Flow and Webflow.
S: Fascinating journey. So how did you come across Lovable?
R: Honestly, it was a bit of luck and a lot of determined Googling. I was searching for AI-assisted coding platforms and discovered a YouTube tutorial where Anton, Lovable's CEO built a crypto dashboard using Lovable. That supabase integration actually caught my attention. I’d been frustrated with other no-code tools—either they locked me into their platforms or had huge learning curves—so seeing Lovable’s AI instantly appealed to me. I joined the Discord, checked the Twitter feed, and quickly realized Lovable was the ideal way to build custom apps without writing every line of code.
S: What types of projects have you built using Lovable?
R: Quite a few! One example is a restaurant finder app that can filter by category. I also built a CRM tool, about 80% of which was done entirely in Lovable before exporting the code and continuing on my own. Before those, I created smaller “micro-service” apps for personal side projects. The major draw is how Lovable lets me quickly spin up a functional prototype and still maintain ownership of the source code.
Lovable Chrome Extension
S: Let’s talk about your Chrome extension for Lovable. What inspired you to create it?
R: I noticed users (myself included) often wanted simpler ways to handle repetitive tasks. For instance, searching older chat logs or instantly picking a color from the screen without leaving Lovable. I also saw requests for voice typing, prompt libraries, and even basic SEO options. While the Lovable team is awesome, they can’t implement every feature at once. So I figured, “Why not build a Chrome extension that fills in these gaps?” That’s how the first version came about—just a simple color picker and a basic search. Then I kept adding features as I got more user feedback.
S: Could you walk us through its main features?
R: Sure! The extension has grown substantially. Here’s the snapshot:
Voice Input Integration
- Real-time voice-to-text transcription
- Visual feedback while speaking
- Hands-free prompt building right inside Lovable
Prompt Library & Prompt Enhancer
- Pre-built prompts for frequent tasks (like fixing mobile layout overflow or adding meta tags)
- Groq AI integration (DeepSeek Llama 70B, Mixtral 8x7B, Gemma2 9B, and LLaMA 3.3 70B)
- A “system prompt” approach that structures outputs in a consistent, reliable way
Project Management
- Custom folders to organize multiple Lovable projects
- Drag-and-drop functionality for rearranging projects
- Quick navigation when you have 50+ active builds (like me!)
Advanced Chat Search
- Efficiently filter and locate specific messages
- Perfect for teams who rely on Lovable for brainstorming or project discussions
Smart Color Picker
- Grab colors directly off the canvas
- Save custom palettes
- Copy color codes in HEX, RGB, HSL—great for designers
SEO Tools
- Quick meta tag generation and validation
- Easy insertion of meta titles, descriptions, and social previews
- Saves you the hassle of editing them manually in code
All of this keeps me (and anyone else) inside Lovable longer, which was always my goal—reduce the friction of jumping between tools.
S: Very impressive. I also noticed you mentioned a plan to convert Lovable projects directly into Android apps. Tell us more.
R: Yes, that’s my next big goal. I’m experimenting with a CLI that installs Capacitor in a Lovable-generated GitHub repo. The idea is whenever you push changes, it automatically builds an Android app. I’ve sorted out the initial step, but it needs more polishing. Ultimately, I’d like to add a simple “Create Android App” button in the extension, so Lovable users can spin up native apps without messing with complicated setups.
Earlier versions, like 1.1.3, primarily introduced Groq AI support and the Prompt Enhancer. But 1.5 is the major leap with voice capabilities and advanced SEO.
S: How has the reception been so far?
R: Surprising, honestly. I posted about the extension on X (Twitter), and a bunch of Lovable users immediately jumped in. The team at Lovable—like you and others—shared it around, gave me feedback, and it’s been growing steadily in daily active users. We’re at nearly 200 users now, and the voice input feature is a big hit. Feedback from the Lovable community is essential. I love hearing what works and what doesn’t, so I can tweak and refine.
Final Thoughts
S: Any final words or advice for other Lovable users who might want to build integrations?
R: I’d say don’t be afraid to tackle a problem you personally face. If you need something, chances are someone else does too. Leverage Lovable’s existing tools, jump into the Discord, follow them on Twitter, and get help early. For me, building the extension was about making sure we all stay in Lovable’s ecosystem rather than hopping back and forth to external tools. And it’s been fun. If I can do it, anyone can!
Conclusion
Rezaul’s Chrome extension perfectly showcases how Lovable’s community can spark real innovation. By identifying everyday hurdles—like the lack of robust project organization, faster input methods, or integrated SEO—he’s built a user-friendly add-on that streamlines development without breaking your flow.
Ready to give it a spin? Head over to the extension’s page, install it, and see how much faster you can build. And if you’re curious about how far Lovable can go, stay tuned for Rezaul’s future projects—like transforming your Lovable app into a native Android build at the click of a button.
