There Is No Magic Prompt: What It Took to Build a First Step Toward a Real App
Описание и применение
<p><em>A free color game for video calls, built with AI in a few days, and the unglamorous work no single prompt did for me.</em></p> <p>I used AI to build it. Claude Code helped me with architecture and low-level code. I'm telling you that first because the rest of this piece is about what the AI did not do. It did a lot. But the thing people imagine, one clever prompt and a working app, is not what happened. What happened is closer to working with a very fast coauthor who needs a lot of direction.</p> <h2> It started at the table </h2> <p>It started over "la once", the Chilean evening tea. M
