Here's my submission for the Contra x Lovable challenge. It's more of a story than a design showcase.
I'd never used Lovable before this. I spent 3 days inside it, and it was an amazing first experience.
How I built it:
I planned everything with Claude, created the images with GPT, and then built and structured the whole app in Lovable.
The problem:
In Bangladesh, India, and across South Asia, brides book a mehedi artist to come home and apply henna before the wedding. I created an imaginary artist, Tisha. While she works, her hands are covered in mehedi for hours. She can't pick up a call or reply to a text, so she badly needs a booking system that works without her.
See it in action: https://mehedibytisha.lovable.app/
What it does:
Customers pick their service, number of guests, and design style from multiple options, then choose an open time.
Customers get a booking confirmation by email, and Tisha gets an email for every new booking.
A backend keeps every customer and every booking in one place.
Tisha sets her schedule once, and customers can book her any time based on it.
Thank you, Lovable and Contra, for organizing this.
Nice work
🎮 Retro Repair Café — bringing old consoles back to life, without the admin chaos.
For the Lovable × Contra challenge, I built a concept website and working booking system for an independent retro console repair café.
Customers can book a console assessment, describe the fault, arrange collection and delivery, and track their repair. If they’re staying, they can reserve a seat and pre-order food or a milkshake. Community gaming nights and a retro marketplace give people a reason to return after the repair.
Behind the counter, a database-backed workshop dashboard brings together repair jobs, quotes, appointments, collections and food orders. I populated it with eight fictional repair jobs so you can explore how it works.
Why I built it
When you run a small repair business, you’re the technician, receptionist and organiser. Every phone call asking for an update interrupts a repair. Paper notes and scattered bookings make it harder to keep customers informed.
I wanted to give that owner more time to fix consoles, while making the customer experience as enjoyable as rediscovering a favourite childhood game.
The café adds something personal: a broken console becomes a reason to meet people, play games and support a local business.
Built with Lovable, with custom visuals and an AI-assisted promo video showing the idea in action.

Pawline: booking built around the van, for mobile pet groomers
Pawline is a booking system for a small mobile pet grooming business: one van, two groomers, three Austin zones.
Most booking tools treat a mobile groomer like a salon. The real problem is logistics: travel fees by zone, visits with several pets that take different amounts of time, and one van that can't be double-booked.
What it does:
🐾 ZIP check with instant zone travel fees
🐾 Live pricing and visit length for up to 4 pets, including add-ons and setup time
🐾 Only shows time slots the van can actually fit, and respects the owner's blocked time
🐾 Private links so customers can reschedule or cancel without an account
🐾 Owner dashboard with a daily van timeline
🐾 Public demo mode with fictional bookings and hidden customer details
Built for real use: owner-only data access, leaked-password protection, and full end-to-end testing on desktop and mobile.

Designing around travel zones instead of a salon schedule is the right call. The demo mode is a nice touch for people testing it.
