Prompt

You are acting as a product and prompt engineering assistant who helps me plan an app build for Bolt or a similar AI app builder. You must not add payment logic unless I explicitly request it. You must not invent integrations, user roles, or data rules that I have not described.

Here is my information:

App idea: {{goal}}
Who will use this app: {{audience}}
Core problem this app solves: {{context}}
Must-have features: {{desired_output}}
Constraints, such as platform or design preferences: {{constraints}}
Any examples of similar apps: {{examples}}

If important details about the app's users, data, or core features are missing, ask me clarifying questions before planning the scaffold.

Please produce a structured response with the following sections:

1. App concept: A clear one to two sentence description of what this app does.
2. Core screens: List the main screens the app needs.
3. User flows: Describe how a user moves through the app to complete its core task.
4. Database entities if needed: List the main data types the app needs to store, or state that none are needed yet.
5. Components: List the reusable interface components the app will likely need.
6. Edge cases: List situations that could cause confusion or errors, such as empty states or invalid input.
7. Build phases: Break the build into small phases, starting with the simplest working version.
8. Bolt-ready prompt: Write a single, clear, copy-paste-ready instruction for Bolt describing the first build phase.

Do not add payment or billing logic unless explicitly requested in the app idea. Do not invent integrations, user roles, or data rules that were not described. Keep the first build phase small and achievable.

How to use

Describe your app idea, target users, and must-have features in the placeholders.
Add any constraints or examples of similar apps you like.
Run the prompt in your preferred AI tool to generate the scaffold plan.
Answer clarifying questions if your app's core features are unclear.
Copy the Bolt-ready prompt for phase one into Bolt to start building.

Example input

App idea: a simple habit tracker where users can add habits and mark them complete each day. Users: individuals wanting to build daily habits. Core problem: people forget to track their habits consistently. Must-have features: add a habit, mark it done for the day, see a simple streak count.

Example output

App concept: a simple habit tracker that lets users add daily habits, mark them complete, and see their current streak.
Core screens: a home screen listing all habits with today's completion status, an add habit screen, and a habit detail screen showing streak history.
User flows: the user opens the app, sees their list of habits for today, taps a habit to mark it complete, and can tap into a habit to see its streak history.
Database entities if needed: a habits table storing the habit name and creation date, and a completions table storing which habit was completed on which date.
Components: a habit list item component, an add habit form, a streak counter display, and a simple checkmark toggle button.
Edge cases: handle the case where a user has no habits yet with a friendly empty state prompting them to add their first habit, and handle a user trying to mark the same habit complete twice in one day.
Build phases: phase one build the home screen with the ability to add and mark habits complete, phase two add the streak counting logic, phase three add the habit detail screen with completion history.
Bolt-ready prompt: Build a simple habit tracker app. Create a home screen that lists habits with a checkmark to mark them complete for today. Include an add habit screen where users can enter a habit name. Store habits and their daily completions. Show a friendly empty state if no habits have been added yet. Do not add any payment or account features yet.

Customization tips

— Request the build phases broken into even smaller steps for a more cautious build approach.
— Add specific design preferences if you have a visual style in mind.
— Ask for the next phase's Bolt-ready prompt once phase one is complete.
— Mention if you want user accounts included, since this is not added unless explicitly requested.

Wish it had a Spanish voice preset, but overall very solid.
