August 19, 2026 Building my first web app: Vibe coding with Lovable + Supabase backend

Hey IH,

I'm wrapping up the development of my first app, MealPlate (mealplate.online).

I built it mainly because I had a daily problem deciding what to cook for breakfast or dinner. The project went through a lot of changes, but I finally got to the final design.

Since this is my first real project, I vibe coded most of it using Lovable, which made building the frontend and iteration super fast. On the backend side, I connected it with Supabase, which felt a bit complex at first, but now I get how databases work.

The app is almost done and I'm polishing the last things. Would love to get some early feedback on how it looks and works!

See some screenshots of my app:

    Have been wanting to build my own recipe app for a while. If you like, I can do a live review with realtime reactions and feedback. Typically helps founders see what's confusing for new users.

I wanted to solve my own problem: "What should I make for dinner?" So I started working on an app with a database full of well-sorted recipes and the possibility to save my own recipes.
