Deskifier for Lovable

Turn your Lovable app into a desktop app

You prompted your way to a working product. Now give it a home on your users’ desktops: a signed, installable app for Mac, Windows and Linux that loads your live Lovable app and updates whenever you publish.

Why not ask Lovable to make it a desktop app?

Lovable generates a React web app, and it’s very good at it. A desktop app is a different kind of project: a native shell (usually Electron), a build for each operating system, code signing certificates, Apple notarisation and an update server. You can ask an AI to scaffold Electron, but then you own that tooling, outside the tool you chose so you wouldn’t have to.

Deskifier keeps the split clean. Your app stays in Lovable and keeps deploying the way it does today. Deskifier points a native desktop app at the published URL and handles everything around it, so each time you publish, desktop users get the change with no rebuild.

What your Lovable app gains

An app, not a tab
Its own window, dock and taskbar icon, and launch at login. Users open your product the way they open their other tools.
Tray and menu bar presence
Keep running after the window closes and stay one click away, for the apps people check all day.
Native notifications
Real OS notifications from your app’s own code, including while the window is closed.
Native features from your code
Ask Lovable to call window.deskifier for files, global shortcuts, printing and window control. The SDK is plain JavaScript.
Signed installers
A notarised DMG for macOS and an Azure-signed installer for Windows, so there are no security warnings on first launch.
Updates on both layers
Publish in Lovable and desktop users see it on their next load. The native shell updates itself in the background.

Lovable app to desktop app in three steps

  1. 1
    Publish in Lovable
    Use your lovable.app address or your custom domain. Whatever URL your users visit is what the desktop app loads.
  2. 2
    Design the shell
    Pick the window style, icon, tray menu and launch behaviour in the Deskifier dashboard.
  3. 3
    Build your installers
    Try a free dev build, then build signed installers for Mac, Windows and Linux, or send them to the app stores.

Frequently asked questions

No. Deskifier loads your published app, so you keep building and publishing in Lovable. Nothing is exported and nothing is forked.

Yes. The desktop app runs your web app in Chromium with its own persistent storage, so sessions, Supabase calls and your backend work as they do in Chrome, and users stay signed in between launches.

Yes. The Deskifier SDK is a JavaScript API on window.deskifier. Point Lovable at the docs and ask for, say, a native notification when a task finishes. Guard the calls so the browser version keeps working.

Not for direct downloads: Deskifier signs Mac and Windows installers for you. You only need your own accounts to publish in the Mac App Store or Microsoft Store.

Dev builds are free, with no card required. You pay per platform you ship to once you’re ready for users; see the pricing page for the details.
