Simply Lovable

The Commons at Granite City · 705 Gold Lake Dr, Suite 150
Have an idea for an app but no developer? This hands-on Lovable workshop takes you from idea to a working app, live, with no developer experience needed.
Matthew Loughran (Founder, CraftsmanAI, and Lovable City Ambassador for Sacramento) leads the session and builds alongside you, so you see each step as it happens. It is the finale of Build Day, held after the day's talks.
What you'll learn
- How to turn a rough idea into a clear prompt that Lovable can build from
- How to build a working app live, one step at a time
- How to change and refine what you've built by talking to the tool
- What to do next once your first version is running
Who it's for
Founders, operators, and curious builders with no coding background who want to see how quickly an idea can become a working app. Bring an idea you'd like to build.
