Write prompts that get the screen you want

The AI chat in the App Editor can build almost anything you describe – but like any assistant, it builds what you actually said, not necessarily what you meant. A few habits make a real difference.

Be specific about layout, content, and components

“Make a product page” works, but it leaves a lot of decisions to the AI. “Make a product page with a large image at the top, the price and an add-to-cart button below it, then a description” gives it far less to guess at. The more of the picture you paint, the closer the first result lands.

Reference existing screens and components by name

If you already have a page or element you like, point at it: “use the same header as the Home page” or “match the button style from the product page.” The AI can look at what already exists in your app rather than inventing something new from scratch.

Iterate instead of starting over

If the first result is close but not quite right, don’t scrap it and re-describe everything from scratch – just say what to change: “make the image bigger,” “move the button below the description.” The AI works from what’s already there, so a follow-up prompt is almost always faster than a full restart.
