Quick but exciting update Lovable.dev, the platform we actually built Lovaround with, is now officially supporting us
It feels amazing to have the very tool that made this possible now helping us grow the community.
This also means we can keep all premium features free for everyone, making it easier than ever to pin yourself, find fellow builders, and start collaborating.
Just wanted to share a quick update and a big thank you
Since launching, Lovaround has welcomed hundreds of makers, developers, and indie hackers all now visible on a real-time, living map of who s building what, and where.
Honestly… it started as a “let’s see what happens” weekend project — and it turned into one of the most energizing things I’ve ever built.
Lovaround is not just a map. It’s an excuse to connect.
To see other makers. To realize you're not building alone — even if it feels like it sometimes.
We wanted to make something simple, visual, and human.
No long onboarding. No DMs required. Just a pin, a profile, and the magic of serendipity.
I’m still learning. I ask 100 questions a day.
But thanks to Lovable (and my very patient co-founder/boyfriend 😅), I was able to ship my first product and actually see people using it. That’s wild.
There’s so much more to do — from hangouts to filters to async collab tools.
But for now, I’m just grateful to be here and share this little spark with you all 💜

Hey everyone! 👋
I’m Jasmin — a junior vibe coder learning to build in public.
Lovaround started as a weekend project with my boyfriend (who’s teaching me Lovable 💜), and now… it’s live!
We built it to help makers find each other — for real.
Let us know what you think, and don’t forget to pin yourself on the map 🌍

Happy to answer any questions or ideas! 🙌

🧐 Good find
Cool idea! But I ran into an issue after signing up. I couldn't fill in my email address, so I wasn't able to complete the final step. Seems like it might be a bug.
Huge respect for what you built with FoundersAround — it clearly resonated with a lot of people (us included!).
Lovaround actually started as a fun weekend experiment to see how fast we could build something feel-good and useful using @Lovable — which made it insanely easy to get something live, fast. Seriously, your work inspired us — and Lovable enabled us 🙏
As for the plan:
We’re keeping it lightweight and playful for now, focusing on the vibe-first experience — helping builders find each other visually, with a sense of presence and serendipity. But we’re listening closely to what the community wants, and already thinking about filters, async hangouts, tags by skills/tools, and more.
Thanks for stopping by — and congrats again for having sparked so many ideas through your own project 💜
The interface has such a welcoming aesthetic! How did you approach balancing visual appeal with functional simplicity in your design process? @lovaround_web
That was exactly the goal — to design a space that feels functional yet welcoming, like a global map where indie devs and founders instantly feel at home.
We followed two core design principles:
Visual familiarity – warm palette, playful yet readable typography, and a map-based layout to instantly spark a sense of global connection.
Simplicity over complexity – every element had to earn its place. If it didn’t help you connect faster, it was removed.
Really happy that the vibe came through! Would love to hear any ideas you have for making it even better 🙌
So the globe itself is a community where we can find resources to build what's being planned? since i have login all details to join the community but i haven't seen any structured platform or group for it.
First of all, thank you for joining the Lovaround map 💜
Right now, the globe is mostly a playful experiment — a way to visualize who’s building with Lovable and spark unexpected connections between vibe coders.
But you're absolutely right — it could evolve into something more structured: a shared space with resources, discussions, collaborations, maybe even in-person meetups.
If you have ideas on how to shape it into a real community platform, I’d love to hear them 🙌
Congrats on the launch. This is an interesting idea, and I already submitted my profile to Lovaround. Looking forward to seeing more developers, designers, or anyone with excellent skills!
Yes — actually, the maker pins are publicly visible and indexed, so over time they can contribute to SEO!
We designed Lovaround to be a real, live network — not just a signup wall — so when someone pins themselves, they’re not just “in the system”… they’re visible to the world 🌍 (unless they choose to hide their profile).
There’s no ad tracking or anything like that, but the visibility might help with organic discovery, backlinks, or even collabs from unexpected corners of the internet ✨
Really appreciate the question — we’re just getting started so ideas like this help us shape where Lovaround goes 🙌

@guanghuadavid thanks for letting us know! 😅
It definitely sounds like a bug (we’ve seen it happen randomly on some browsers 👀).
We just pushed a quick fix — could you try again and see if it works for you now? 👉 https://lovaround.com
If it’s still acting weird, feel free to DM me or drop a note here — I’ll jump on it right away 🛠️💜
Thanks again for being part of day 1 — you’re helping us make it better! 🙌
@lovaround_web Thanks jasmin It's normal now. and I'm very honored to be the first person whose location is in China~

@guanghuadavid 😍😍😍😍😍
Leo, FoundersAround founder here. Congrats on the launch! It's so great to see people launching websites inspired by one I created from scratch.
What's your plan with the platform?

@justin_bao Thank you so much! 🙌
So glad you joined the map — and YES, we’re super excited to see it fill up with devs, designers, makers… anyone building something cool 🔥
We’re thinking about adding tags or filters soon to make it easier to find the right people to connect with.
If you have any ideas (or wishes!), I’d love to hear them 💡
Thanks again for the support — means a lot on day one 💜

Will it also affect somehow SEO and AD when someone "register/pin" there? :)
