// WHAT IS AN MVP

Minimum Viable Product — Your First Ship

An MVP is the smallest, simplest version of your product that you can actually put in front of real people. Not perfect. Not complete. Just real enough to test whether anyone cares.

Today's MVP: a professional landing page for your business idea. One page. Clear headline. What you offer, who it's for, and how to contact you. That's it. That's enough to start getting clients or customers.

Speed over perfection. Ship it, then improve it.

// THE BUILD PROCESS

How to Build With Claude in 5 Steps

01
Open claude.ai

Free account. Log in. You'll see a clean chat interface — this is your build environment.

02
Paste your MVP prompt

Use the generator below to build your prompt. The more specific, the better the first output.

03
Review the preview

Claude shows a live preview on the right. This is your actual webpage rendering in real time.

04
Iterate with follow-up prompts

Tell Claude exactly what to fix: layout, colors, copy, sections. Each message refines the product.

05
Save the HTML

Once you're happy, copy the code. You can host it for free on GitHub Pages, Netlify, or Tiiny.host in minutes.

Build Your Landing Page Prompt 🎯

Fill this in and I'll generate a production-ready prompt for Claude. Use your idea from Lesson 1.

// ITERATION PROMPTS

What to Say After the First Build

Your first output will be good. These follow-up prompts will make it great. Copy and paste any of these after your initial build:

"Make the hero section more bold and increase the headline font size significantly"
"Add a testimonials section with 3 placeholder client quotes"
"Add a pricing section with 3 tiers: Basic, Pro, and Custom"
"Make the whole page darker and more premium looking"
"Add a FAQ section with 4 common questions about my service"
"Add smooth scroll animations to each section as the user scrolls down"
// DEBRIEF

What Did You Build?

After your Claude session, come back here. Describe your page — what it looks like, what you changed, what you'd still improve. This reflection sharpens your skills faster than anything else.
