5 AI App In 30 Minutes (ChatGPT + Lovable Tutorial)

The 'Tiny Ferrets Carry Dangerous Code' framework for safe, effective coding, and the dual-mode framework (implementation vs. debugging) to guide what actions and support you need from the AI during building.

A web app (everything calculator), a dashboard (personal finance dashboard), an internal tool (freelancer toolkit), a mobile app (drawing coach), and an AI agent (task manager agent).

It's a framework for AI-assisted coding consisting of: Thinking (thoroughly planning what to build with a PRP—product requirements prompt), Frameworks (leveraging existing packages and frameworks), Checkpoints (using version control), Debugging (systematically fixing errors), and Context (always providing clear, thorough context to the AI).

A PRP helps clarify what you want to build for both yourself and the AI tool, improving communication and ensuring better, more accurate results by specifying target audience, customer experience, core features, mockups, aesthetics, and tech stack.

Begin with a clear PRP, consider existing frameworks, use version control, debug systematically (providing the AI with detailed error messages and context), and make incremental changes.

You are either in 'implementing a feature' mode (providing context, using frameworks, making incremental changes) or in 'debugging' mode (understanding code structure, providing error messages, adding context like screenshots).

The first project is the 'Everything Calculator,' a web app where users can describe any calculator they want and have it instantly built with a clean interface.

Level 1: Users build any calculator on demand. Level 2: Turns into a platform with logins, the ability to browse, save, and rate calculators. Level 3: Becomes social, allowing sharing via social media, embedding calculators, and building a creator following.

The second project is a 'Freelancer Toolkit.' Level 1: Document generator (proposals, contracts, invoices). Level 2: Client management (store documents, track invoices, manage projects, Stripe payment links). Level 3: Smart AI assistant with suggestions and reminders, automated emails, and integration with calendars.

Lovable has a Stripe integration; you just prompt it to connect to Stripe and follow the setup flow to embed payment links into invoices.

The third project is 'Sketch Buddy,' a mobile app that helps beginner artists upload and evaluate their drawings with AI feedback, track progress, and build confidence—catering to those who want personalized art feedback.

Level 1: Simple photo-based feedback and links to tutorials. Level 2: Progress tracking, achievement system. Level 3: Real-time interactive voice/video coaching and AI-annotated visual feedback.

By using median.co to convert the web app to a mobile app, integrating necessary APIs (camera, OpenAI vision, progress tracking).

The fourth project is 'Spend Buddy,' a personal finance dashboard designed for people who dislike spreadsheets, have poor impulse control, and need extra motivation to manage their finances.

Level 1: Upload statements for AI analysis. Level 2: Real-time bank connection, dashboards, visualizations, push notifications. Level 3: AI finance coach with chatbot features and daily summaries via WhatsApp.

Lovable and Superbase for backend and authentication, OpenAI’s Vision API for statement analysis, Plaid API for real-time financial data, Recharts for visualization, push notifications, and PostHog or Plausible for analytics.

'Brain Dash,' a smart AI task manager agent that helps users organize, prioritize, and manage tasks (especially for people with chaotic, unpredictable schedules) by considering moods, energy levels, and other data.

Model, Tools, Memory & Knowledge, Audio & Speech, Guardrails, and Orchestration.

Level 1: Smart task list with voice/text input and AI prioritization. Level 2: Adds health data (Apple HealthKit, Google Fit), tracks mood/energy for better task suggestions. Level 3: Full productivity coach, real-time AI conversation, calendar and meeting integration, time blocking.

Switch to code view, understand app structure, provide clear error messages and context to the AI, use chat features to ask about code and errors, and check integrations systematically.

Version control ensures you don’t lose work, can revert to previous versions, track progress, and manage collaborative changes—especially important in incremental, AI-assisted development.
