6 min read
Goal: write a prompt that gives Kuika AI everything it needs for a strong first version.
What you will do
- Learn the four parts of a good prompt
- Write your own prompt in the prompt box
- Try Enhance prompt and, if you like, attach a file
The four parts
A good prompt answers four questions. Plain sentences are perfect.
- Who uses the app? Members, an organizer, a manager, customers.
- What do they do? Suggest, vote, approve, book, report.
- What does the app remember? Books, meetings, votes, summaries.
- What are the rules? "Each member votes once." "Only the organizer sets the meeting."
Add a number when it matters, such as how much sample data you want. Kuika AI fills the app with realistic sample data either way, so it looks alive on the first open.
Steps
- Open the Kuika AI home page and choose Web.
- Write your prompt in the prompt box. Use the example below or describe your own idea.
- Press Enhance prompt if your idea is short. Kuika AI expands it into a fuller description. Read it and change anything that is not right.
- Attach a file if you have one. A screenshot of a layout you like, or a document that describes the process. Kuika AI reads it as reference.
- Leave Plan mode on and send the prompt. You will review the plan in the next lesson.
Try this prompt
Build a reading club app. Members suggest books, vote on the next one and see the meeting date and place. The organizer picks the winning book, sets the meeting and writes a short summary afterwards. Fill it with 12 sample books and 3 past meetings.
Check yourself
- Does your prompt say who uses the app and what each person does?
- Did you include at least one rule the app must follow?
- Is Plan mode still on before you send?
Next lesson: Approve the plan, where you check Kuika AI's plan before anything is built.
