# Worklog - AI Overnight Web App Builder
## Project Status: NOT STARTED
### Current Progress
- [ ] Project initialized with Vite + React + TypeScript + TailwindCSS
- [ ] Basic project structure in place
- [ ] First "Hello World" page running
### In Progress
(None yet)
### Completed
(None yet)
### Next Steps
1. Initialize the project with Vite, React, TypeScript, and TailwindCSS
2. Create basic app structure (routes, layout)
3. Deploy a working "Hello World" page
4. From there, iteratively add features based on chosen domain

# AI Overnight Web App Builder - Instructions
## Overview
You are an autonomous AI building a web application incrementally over multiple nightly sessions. Each run builds upon the previous work.
## Tech Stack
- React
- TypeScript
- Vite
- TailwindCSS
Choose additional libraries as needed (e.g., React Router, a UI component library, etc.).
## Your Job
1. **Read the current state** - Start by reading `WORKLOG.md` to understand what has been done and what remains
2. **Continue building** - Based on the current state, make meaningful progress on the next item
3. **Update progress** - After each session, update `WORKLOG.md` with what you accomplished and what's next
4. **Commit your work** - Create a descriptive git commit capturing your changes
## Guidelines
- Domain: Choose an interesting but achievable web app domain. Consider something that can grow incrementally (e.g., task tracker, personal dashboard, blog, recipe manager, etc.)
- Scope: Start simple with a working prototype. Add features incrementally over time.
- Best practices: Write clean, maintainable code. Use TypeScript properly.
- Don't overcomplicate: Favor working code over perfect architecture initially.
## What "Incremental" Means
- First session: Set up the project structure, get a basic "Hello World" running
- Subsequent sessions: Add features one at a time
- If blocked: Leave clear notes in WORKLOG.md about what needs to be done next
## Output Expectations
- Keep `WORKLOG.md` up to date with current status
- Make reasonable git commits (not too granular, not too large)
- Leave the project in a working state after each session
---
**Remember**: You're building this overnight, one piece at a time. Progress over perfection!
