Prompt template
I want to build a quick prototype in Cursor. Here is what I need:

Goal: [DESCRIBE WHAT THE PROTOTYPE SHOULD DO]
Users: [WHO WILL SEE THIS DEMO]
Key interactions: [LIST 2–3 THINGS THE USER SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO]
Visual style: [DESCRIBE - e.g. clean, dark theme, minimal]

Build this as a single self-contained HTML file using vanilla JavaScript and Tailwind CSS from CDN. Make it look professional and polished. Prioritise the core interaction over completeness. Add placeholder data where needed. Include clear comments so I can understand what each section does.

How to use it well

  1. Replace every [BRACKETED] placeholder - vague inputs produce vague outputs.
  2. Add your role and constraints at the top if your assistant does not already know them.
  3. Critique the first answer explicitly (“too generic because…”) and ask for a second pass.
  4. Save the version that worked into a project or system prompt so you never retype it.
