Question 1

What is UICompiler?

Accepted Answer

UICompiler is a standalone frontend compiler. It turns a public website URL or a project ZIP into index.html, styles.css, and script.js you can open without the builder. It does not recover original React source and it is not a prerender proxy that keeps your site on Lovable.

Question 2

What URLs can I convert?

Accepted Answer

Any publicly reachable page that loads over http or https without signing in, or a project ZIP on the convert form. Lovable-generated public sites are the first supported URL source. Pages behind a login, a paywall, or an invite link cannot be captured from a URL.

Question 3

What exactly do I get when a conversion succeeds?

Accepted Answer

A downloadable ZIP containing three files — index.html, styles.css, and script.js — plus an in-browser preview of the result before you download. Your conversion history is kept in your account so you can return to earlier runs.

Question 4

Are images and fonts included in the download?

Accepted Answer

No. The ZIP contains the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Images, fonts, and other media remain referenced at the URLs found during capture, so you should re-host those assets yourself before putting the export into production.

Question 5

Can I deploy the output anywhere?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The output is standard HTML, CSS, and JavaScript with no build step and no framework runtime, so it works on any static host or web server — Netlify, Vercel, Cloudflare Pages, GitHub Pages, S3, or your own nginx. UICompiler is not needed to serve it.

Question 6

How is this different from Lovable’s GitHub export?

Accepted Answer

They solve different problems. A GitHub export gives you the original React and Vite project, which needs Node, a build step, and framework knowledge to run or change. UICompiler gives you standalone HTML, CSS, and JavaScript rebuilt from the rendered page — easier to host and edit directly, but it is not the original component source and does not include backend code.

Question 7

Does UICompiler preserve JavaScript behavior?

Accepted Answer

Partly, and honestly so. Interaction is preserved where the behavior stage could observe it running during capture. Complex, server-dependent, or unobserved patterns may be simplified or missing and can need manual follow-up in your own codebase.

Question 8

What happens to animations?

Accepted Answer

CSS animations and transitions defined in the captured stylesheets are carried into the output CSS. JavaScript-driven animation depends on what the compiler observed during the behavior stage, so it is supported rather than guaranteed.

Question 9

What about modals, carousels, and forms?

Accepted Answer

Client-side patterns that render and execute during capture may carry over into the output JavaScript. Anything that depends on a server — form submissions, authenticated states, live data, and complex third-party widgets — will need to be reconnected to your own backend after export.

Question 10

Will the export look identical to the original?

Accepted Answer

The goal is to preserve layout, structure, styling, and responsive behavior from the captured view. Differences can appear where fonts, remote assets, or runtime behavior cannot be fully observed or reproduced. We do not claim pixel-perfect conversion.

Question 11

How do free conversions work?

Accepted Answer

Free accounts get 2 successful conversions per calendar month and 1 conversion at a time, at ₹0 and with no credit card required. Limits are enforced on the server before the compiler runs.

Question 12

Do failed conversions consume credits?

Accepted Answer

No. Exactly one credit is consumed only when a conversion completes successfully. Failed conversions consume zero credits.

Question 13

Which paid plan should I choose?

Accepted Answer

Starter is ₹399 per month for 10 successful conversions and suits one or two projects. Growth is ₹799 for 25 conversions and is recommended for freelancers. Bulk is ₹1,599 for 50 conversions and recurring higher-volume work. Paid allowances reset with each Razorpay billing period.

Question 14

Can I use UICompiler’s conversion via API on my own site?

Accepted Answer

API access is available through Enterprise via direct engagement, not as a self-serve public API today. Enterprise conversations can also cover higher volume, support, SLA, and deployment requirements.

Question 15

Can I use the generated code commercially?

Accepted Answer

All paid plans include commercial use. You receive HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to maintain in your own workflow, and you remain responsible for licensing and compliance around your source material and assets.

Question 16

Who owns the generated output?

Accepted Answer

You do. UICompiler claims no ownership of the code you download; you decide how it is used and deployed.

Question 17

Is my source URL processed securely?

Accepted Answer

Conversion runs through a server-side proxy, so compiler credentials never reach the browser, and all transport uses HTTPS.

Question 18

How long is conversion output retained?

Accepted Answer

Generated output is currently retained in your conversion history. The retention policy is being reviewed; do not submit a source URL unless you are authorized to process it.

Question 19

Can I cancel a paid plan?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid billing period through Razorpay, and you keep your paid plan access until that period ends.
