- Took a while to write the prompt, based on knowledge of Manifold API. But really pays off!
- Was already familiar with Manifold API and response, had to provide that context
- Knew roughly how yield could use this (fetch, promise.all)
- Knew where to look in Manifold codebase to
- yield.sh actually worked better than Claude:
- could
fetch - didn’t use recharts which was fine
- didn’t use shadcn, which also was fine (though! turns out shadcn is available at
https://esm.sh/shadcdn) - Then, I asked Claude to suggest different visualization approaches — this was really good
- In context window of above, I prompted
- There are small errors with each of the visualizations, but really good for inspiration

things to improve in yield.sh
Have Claude help user make a good prompt? Like interactive prompt forming, or asking y/n questions on how things should look
- “What do you want your app to do?”
- “Where do you want to get the data?”
- “What aesthetic do you want? Modern design? 2000s chaotic myspace? black-and-green hacker terminal?”
Make it much easier to generate & preview 4 different versions
- Should be able to do this all in one shot, no extra copying+pasting required
