Your First Message to Claude Code
It doesn't have to be perfect. You can keep the conversation going and refine as you go.
Fill in the blanks
I want to build a ___ website. What it does: ___ Who it's for: ___ 3 must-have features to start with: 1. ___ 2. ___ 3. ___ Where should I start?
Here's what it could look like
I want to build a group event scheduling website. What it does: It's a pain when someone asks "when are you free?" in a group chat. I want a site where you share a link and everyone votes on which dates work for them. Who it's for: Young professionals in their 20s–30s. No sign-up required — just open the link and vote. 3 must-have features to start with: 1. Create an event with multiple date options and let participants check the ones that work 2. No sign-up — just enter a name and vote right away 3. A clear view of voting results at a glance Where should I start?
What to Say Next
After your first prompt, the AI will generate code. From there, just chat naturally with short requests.
“Can you run this for me?”
“Make the text bigger”
“Change the background to blue”
“I want to add a login feature”
“I'm getting an error, can you help? (paste the error message)”
“Explain what we've built so far”
Don't worry about saying the wrong thing. You can always say "Undo that and try again."
