How to build an AI app

From idea to AI-powered product: the pages, the data model and the prompts that get you there.

How to build an AI app

Every AI app has the same skeleton: an input surface, some model or logic in the middle, and a way to show results. Start by describing that loop in one paragraph.

Next, sketch the pages: a landing page that explains the value, the core tool page where the magic happens, and optionally auth plus a history or dashboard view.

Then define your data. What needs to be stored — users, generations, settings? Name the tables and fields in your prompt; the agent wires up the database for you.

Build it in slices: landing first, then the core loop, then polish. Test with real inputs early — AI features always need two or three rounds of prompt tuning.

Finally, publish and share the link. Watch how people use it, then iterate with follow-up prompts. Shipping beats perfecting.
