Building Your First App

A step-by-step walkthrough of creating your first application with Spec2Stack

Planning Your App

Before you start building, take a moment to plan your application:

  • Purpose: What problem does your app solve?
  • Users: Who will use your application?
  • Features: What key features do you need?
  • Data: What information will your app store?
Writing Effective Descriptions

The key to getting great results is writing clear, detailed descriptions:

Good Example:

"Build a recipe sharing app where users can create accounts, upload recipes with photos, search recipes by ingredients, save favorites, and rate recipes. Include user profiles and a trending recipes section."

Avoid:

"Make me a recipe app"

Testing and Iteration

Once your app is generated, test it thoroughly:

  • Try all the features you requested
  • Test on different screen sizes
  • Check for any missing functionality
  • Refine your description if needed
  • Generate iterations to improve the app
Pro Tips for Success
  • • Start simple and add complexity gradually
  • • Be specific about user interactions and workflows
  • • Mention any specific design preferences or requirements
  • • Include details about data relationships and structure
  • • Don't forget about user authentication if needed
