Claude AI hands on creating a Book e-Commerce and fixing errors, PHPStorm, PHP, Docker Desktop, MySQL in Windows
I’ll show the process of a creation of a web application for a e-Commerce book store.
The most important is to define a good requirements prompt.
I created a file named docs/promptia.md
Set the quality to the max in youtube to be able to see the screen clearly.
It takes long time, so unless you want to see all the process in real time, use the chapters I added to skip to the parts you’re interested.
Chapters in the youtube video:
