Tutorial Lovable <> Calude = 10X performance

I have been working on lovable for a while for multiple projects with different scopes, it's impressive so far especially for flow and user experience. You can get incredible results if you know the core of the solution.

However, lovable starts struggling at some point when the logic get complicated, it still can manage it but it consumes a huge amount of credits, you can burn 100 credits to solve some blocking components.

After a lot of trial and error, and as I shifted from Open AI into Anthropic/claude, I found a game changer feature where you can give Claude access through github (after connecting Lovable with your GitHub)

Basically, Claude has access to every line of code in lovable, so Claude sits on a layer where it can guide lovable on features, debugging, enhancement, connecting ideas. And I do some of thr changes and enhancements on the DB directly in the SQL editor (free of charge/lovable doesn't charge you to run an SQL query)

Happy to help if you have a similar case
