Design Fast, Build Smart: How Heer Digital Uses Lovable and Cursor to Streamline Web Projects

At Heer Digital, we’re always looking for ways to streamline how we design, build, and ship websites and web applications. That’s why we’ve adopted a flexible stack that combines Lovable for AI-assisted design, Cursor for AI-accelerated development, and Supabase for backend syncing — all connected through MCP (Multi-Channel Platform). This approach helps us deliver high-quality digital products faster, with lower costs, and without the creative bottlenecks of traditional workflows.


1. Designing with Lovable: From Concept to Clickable Mockups

Lovable is our go-to tool for visual design — especially when working with early-stage startups or SME clients who need to go from idea to prototype fast. With Lovable, we can:

  • Rapidly generate on-brand website or app UIs

  • Build full clickable flows to show client journeys

  • Create versioned concepts to compare different visual directions

But there’s a catch: Lovable credits are expensive, so we use it primarily for:

  • The initial ideation and UI structure

  • Key pages that set the tone (e.g. homepage, dashboard, core flows)

  • Design critiques with clients before development begins

Once the core layout is validated, we export designs and move to Cursor for deeper build work.


2. Building with Cursor: Code-Ready Refinement

Cursor acts as our AI coding partner — perfect for taking designs from Lovable and turning them into working code. We use Cursor to:

  • Convert Lovable mockups into HTML/CSS/JS or React/Next.js/WordPress

  • Build custom WordPress themes using Tailwind CSS + ACF (Advanced Custom Fields)

  • Translate UI components into working web app logic, fast

Cursor’s Git integration lets us collaborate on code like any dev team, while the AI pair programming speeds up everything from layout tweaks to API wiring.


3. Supabase and MCP: Keeping Design and Code in Sync

With Supabase as our backend and MCP as our syncing layer, we’re able to:

  • Push content and user data in real-time across Cursor + Lovable outputs

  • Maintain data consistency between prototype and production

  • Simplify version control, preview links, and environment management

This is especially useful when Lovable designs feed into functional web apps. Cursor helps us apply real logic, while Supabase stores and syncs user data, auth, and more.


4. Real Use Cases from Heer Digital

? SME Websites (WordPress):

  • We use Lovable to design homepage and key pages

  • Export to Cursor, build custom themes using ACF

  • Sync to client site via Git and deploy through a CI/CD flow

? Web Apps (Internal Tools, Dashboards):

  • Use Lovable to mock up UI and user flows

  • Cursor to flesh out app logic with Supabase backend

  • MCP keeps staging and production branches aligned


5. Why This Stack Works for Us

  • Speed: Lovable lets us skip the Figma phase when needed. Cursor speeds up coding.

  • Cost control: We limit Lovable usage to design decisions and switch to Cursor when things get expensive.

  • Scalability: Supabase + MCP give us backend muscle without over-engineering.

  • Client transparency: We can show clients working designs and working code in the same week.


Conclusion

For Heer Digital, combining Lovable, Cursor, and Supabase via MCP is more than just a tech stack — it’s a creative production workflow. We design faster, build smarter, and stay flexible with budgets. Whether it’s a one-page WordPress site or a full web app, this hybrid approach helps us deliver better work with less waste.
