How to Clone Any Web App Using AI (No Coding Needed!)
What if I told you that you could clone any web app’s design
and features without writing a single line of code? Sounds wild, right? But
watch this—you describe the app you want, and within minutes the code is
generated, the app is live, and it’s fully functional.
In this video, I’ll show you how to clone a complete web application in
minutes—login system, database, custom design, and even publishing it online
with a free domain, all with zero coding.
I’m Brian from Website Learners, and let’s get started.
PART 1: Generate the Web App Structure
In this part, we’ll generate the complete structure of the
app—design, layout, and core interface.
1.1 Create an Account on Lovable AI
Lovable AI is the tool we’ll use to generate the web app.
- Click
the link in the description
- Sign
up
- Log
in with Google
- Your
Lovable account is ready
1.2 Upload a Screenshot of the App You Want to Clone
AI needs a reference design to analyze layout and structure.
- Take
a screenshot of the target app
- Windows:
Windows + Print Screen
- Mac:
Command + Shift + 4
- Example:
cloning Eleven Labs (text-to-speech tool)
- Upload
screenshot to Lovable
This helps the AI create an accurate clone.
1.3 Generate the App Using a Detailed Prompt
To build the app correctly, Lovable needs detailed
instructions.
Use a ChatGPT Prompt to Auto-Generate the App Description
- Paste
the provided prompt into ChatGPT
- Answer
questions about:
- Type
of app
- Main
function
- APIs
needed
For example:
- Application
type: Text-to-Speech
- Function:
Convert text into speech using various voice models
- API:
OpenAI (for high-quality voice generation)
ChatGPT generates a full detailed prompt.
Generate the Web App
- Copy
the prompt
- Paste
into Lovable
- Click
Generate
Lovable writes the code and builds the entire frontend
automatically.
Test the Generated App
- Enter
text → Click “Generate”
- It
doesn’t work yet (API not connected)
Lovable shows:
- API
integration missing
- Need
backend server
- Need
secure API storage
Which leads to Part 2.
PART 2: Create a Backend for the Web App
A backend is essential for:
- Secure
API keys
- Database
- Functionality
- Authentication
We will use Supabase for this.
2.1 Connect Your App to Supabase
Supabase is a simple backend + database service.
- Go
to Supabase
- Connect
with GitHub
- Authorize
- Create
organization
- Allow
Lovable access
Now Lovable can integrate backend automatically.
2.2 Create a Supabase Project
- Click
Create New Project
- Enter
database name & password
- Click
Create
- Project
is ready
Next, link the project to Lovable.
2.3 Link Supabase to Your App
- Go
to Lovable
- Click
“Connect to Supabase”
- Select
your newly created database
- Connection
complete
Lovable now manages backend automatically.
2.4 Add OpenAI API Key (For Text-to-Speech)
To generate audio:
- Go
to OpenAI → Log in
- Create
secret API key
- Copy
the key
- In
Lovable → Add API Key
- API
key stored securely in database
Your backend is now fully set up.
Test the Functionality
- Enter
text → Click “Generate”
- Voice
is generated instantly
- Try
other voice models
- Download
audio
The app is fully functional.
PART 3: Customize Your Web App
Now let’s add extra features.
3.1 Add a History Page (To Store Generated Audio Files)
Ask Lovable in chat:
“Create a history page to display all generated audio and
store them in Supabase.”
Lovable will:
- Write
SQL commands
- Create
storage bucket
- Add
new page
- Connect
to database
Click Apply Changes.
Test History Page
- Generate
audio
- Go
to History
- Audio
files appear
You can also verify in Supabase → Storage → audio files.
3.2 Add User Authentication (Sign-In Page)
Ask Lovable:
“Create an authentication page with user sign-up and login.”
Lovable will:
- Add
sign-in & sign-up UI
- Configure
backend storage
- Save
user details in Supabase
Test Authentication
- Enter
email + password
- Sign
up
- Check
Supabase → Users
- User
details stored
Only registered users can now access the app.
3.3 Create a Landing Page
Ask Lovable:
“Create a landing page as the homepage.”
Lovable will:
- Add
hero section
- Add
CTA button
- Link
button to sign-up page
Landing page is ready.
3.4 Customize Design & Elements
To edit any element:
- Click
Edit
- Click
any text → Change in sidebar

You can customize anything visually.
PART 4: Publish Your Web App Online
Once published, your app is live globally.
4.1 Publish the App

Publish
- Lovable
provides a free domain
- Click
Publish Again
- App
goes live instantly
Anyone can now access your app online.
4.2 Final Testing
- Click
“Try for Free”
- Login
- Enter
text
- Generate
audio
- Everything
works perfectly
Your cloned web app is fully functional and live on the
internet.
Conclusion
And that’s it! This is how you can clone any web app using
AI—design, backend, voice generation, authentication, history pages, and final
publishing, all without coding.
