Don’t start vibe coding with “Build me an app. Your first prompt can shape the entire project. AI will use those early instructions to make decisions about:
✅ Project structure ✅ Components ✅ Data models ✅ User flows
A vague prompt might get you a working prototype quickly. But it can also create a messy foundation that becomes painful to change later and burn lot of credits.
So treat your first prompt like a mini project brief.
Give AI context about:
The problem → users → scope → features → tech constraints → design principles → expected architecture.
And tell it when to ask questions instead of making assumptions.
It can shape everything that comes after it.
Wish you all the best
