Deliver it

A starter prompt for Claude Code, what you'll need, and how to reach them.

Build a minimal version of "Tell HN: Thank You Dang". Read the original at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25225775 for the exact requirements, then scaffold a Next.js + Tailwind app, implement the smallest valuable slice first, and ship it. (Enable AI scoring for a tailored, detailed prompt.)
