Deploy Your Lovable App

Take your Lovable app from prototype to production in minutes

Last updated: February 20, 2026

Lovable lets you build polished React apps with AI, but getting them hosted independently gives you full control over your domain, analytics, and deploy pipeline. Here's how to take your Lovable project from ZIP download to live production site.

How to deploy

From Lovable to live in minutes.

1

Download from Lovable

Go to your project SettingsDownload as ZIP. Alternatively, connect GitHub in Lovable and clone the repository.

2

Build the project

Lovable exports React + Vite + TypeScript source code. Unzip and build to generate the static output.

bash
unzip my-project.zip && cd my-project && npm install && npm run build
3

Deploy to ZeroDeploy

Upload the dist/ folder through the dashboard or deploy from the command line.

bash
zerodeploy deploy --dir dist

Things to know

Lovable-specific tips to avoid common pitfalls.

  • Lovable exports source code, not a ready-to-deploy build. You need npm install && npm run build before deploying.
  • If your app uses Supabase, that's fine — Supabase is a separate hosted service that the frontend calls via API. Your static site will work with Supabase out of the box.
  • Lovable projects use React Router. Add a public/_redirects file with /* /index.html 200 for client-side routing support. Learn more about redirects →
