Users connect their own OpenRouter account to generate code with an LLM, with no markup fee from playplanet.dev, and every published app is open source under the MIT license and remixable. Projects run on git, so users can clone and deploy anywhere, and remixing other users' projects is pitched as a way to save AI tokens.", "body_md": "Hey HN,\n\nwe built playplanet.dev, a Lovable alternative that lets you build and run full stack apps entirely in the browser, no server needed. We run it on a Linux like system compiled to WebAssembly and then use a runtime on top of it. Currently we support frameworks like Astro, React, Angular, Vue and Svelte.\n\nYou connect your own OpenRouter account and use it to build out the code with an LLM, so there’s no markup fee on our side.\n\nEvery app you publish is open source under the MIT license, and anyone can remix it to build their own version.\n\nIt allows you to get a head start with your project by using another user’s project as a starting point and save AI tokens. You can also get inspired by the community and share projects with your colleagues.\n\nBecause it all runs on git, you aren’t locked in and can clone your project anytime and deploy it wherever you like.\n\nPlease check it out and let me know what you think.\n\nWebsite: [https://playplanet.dev/](https://playplanet.dev/)\n\nComments URL: [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50261927](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50261927)\n\nPoints: 1\n\n# Comments: 0", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-i-built-a-lovable-alternative-that-runs-in-the-browser", "canonical_source": "https://playplanet.dev/", "published_at": "2026-10-27 16:47:20+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-10-27 17:11:47.520906+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-tools", "ai-products", "generative-ai", "developer-tools"], "entities": ["playplanet.dev", "Lovable", "OpenRouter", "Astro", "React", "Angular", "Vue", "Svelte"], "also_reported_by": [], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-i-built-a-lovable-alternative-that-runs-in-the-browser", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-i-built-a-lovable-alternative-that-runs-in-the-browser.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-i-built-a-lovable-alternative-that-runs-in-the-browser.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-i-built-a-lovable-alternative-that-runs-in-the-browser.jsonld"}}
