Rapid Web Prototypes with Claude 3

Builiding my Web with Artificial Intelligence

Summary: - The episode, hosted by Andrés Díaz, explains how to rapidly turn ideas into functional web prototypes using Claude 3 as a design and code assistant. - It centers on three quick questions to define a prototype: the problem it solves, the target user, and the first action on the initial view. - A practical five-step flow is provided: 1) define objective and audience; 2) craft clear prompts for Claude 3; 3) review results with accessibility and performance criteria; 4) export basic HTML/CSS and add simple interactions; 5) test on different devices and optimize. - Useful prompt examples cover a SaaS landing page, a product page with reusable components, and a small online store prototype with micro-interactions. - Hosting recommendation: Hostinger is highlighted for affordable, AI-powered hosting and domain sales. - Technical capabilities: Claude 3 can generate basic HTML/CSS, reusable UI components, and design variants; start with semantic HTML, ensure accessibility in CSS, and add light JavaScript for micro-interactions; it can also propose a scalable style guide. - Recent updates improve generating coherent UI from descriptions, handling multi-language code, respecting usability criteria, and exporting paste-ready code. - Iteration plan: MVP HTML/CSS with visual identity, then add responsive layout and dark mode, then implement a small interaction to validate user flow. - Cautions and opportunities: delaying prototyping slows progress; consistency across prototypes is powerful; AI prototyping shortens idea validation and accelerates learning. - Interactive prompts throughout encourage listeners to share preferences (CMS export vs static design) and to suggest first accessibility measures. - The episode encourages starting with a simple prompt to generate three design variants for comparison and testing with real users.
