A starting point — say it in your own words, and add anything specific to you.
Build me a recommendation request tracker. Who you asked, what you gave them, and when to send the thank-you. Keep it simple enough for one person to finish in an afternoon, ask me for anything you need, and explain what you built when you are done.
Build "Recommendation Request Tracker" with a coach
Tell it what you actually want this to do and it will turn that into a prompt you can paste in, break the build into one session, and help you read the error when something breaks.
AI can be wrong — check anything that matters with the club moderator. Do not share personal details here.
How to build it
- Open a terminal in a new folder and type `claude`.
- Paste the starter prompt below and answer the questions it asks.
- Try it. Tell Claude what is wrong or missing in plain English, and let it fix it.
- Repeat until you would show it to someone. Save the request and the result for demo day.
Build it with the club
Start it as a club project and other members can join, take tasks, and chat about it in one place.
