Building on loveable/bolt is worse than cursor

Recently, I have been using many ai assisted coding tools. My favourite has been cursor, it feels clean, fast and allows me to edit with precision. A friend of mine told me about loveable and showed me his poorly built web app with no functionality. I gave it a go and found that this platform did not do well unless heavily prompted with requirements and specifications. I made my own tool to help engineer requirements before using one of these platforms and I have gotten great results so far. I am building the next version of my tool breta.ai using it, which I then put into loveable for a few prompts then edit offline in cursor. It feels difficult to find a great coding flow with so many new tools and coding paradigm shifts, but for me this has worked well. By getting a strong SRS before coding you can force tools like loveable/cursor to code specific features and conform to specifications. Please check it out and let me know if it works for you
