Any serious company has a brand/design system which Lovable can't leverage well, thus needs designers to use in Figma.
Either way, my point is the customer LTV will be super low for use cases like this.
- lbreakjai 1y agoI haven't tried with lovable, but gemini studio is fully capable of following a styleguide based on a screenshot, which is probably the crudest and least refined protocol I could think of. I'm sure there's already integrations somewhere that could allow a designer to specify a bunch of brand colours, to generate a styleguide out of it in plain english, and get a working prototype out of it.
- marcosdumay 1y agoA design system is not "following a styleguide based on a screenshot". A design system is an ontology of UI elements that your software has to adhere to, with several rules about how those elements are or aren't allowed to interact. Following a styleguide will make your software break as soon as the design system gets updated.
- Spivak 1y agoI think you have an idealistic view of what design systems are in practice once filtered down to the developer (or AI) who is tasked with implementing them. You consider yourself lucky if the devs use the right fonts, icons, and colors. Behaviors will be whatever component library they're using does.
