I was afraid I was stuck and nothing was happening but it was just processing my long prompt. Will report full experience soon!
Discussion
I'm confused at this point. It's seemingly completed building and asks 'What now?' but when I try to 'npm build dev' it's just a Welcome to Your Blank App page and nothing like what it says should be there.
Assuming it needed to be told to deploy the code, I asked if it had completed and it told me that it had and reiterated all the things it's done.
What am I missing nostr:nprofile1qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq37amnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dwfjkccte9ejx2un9ddex7umn9ekk2tcqyqlhwrt96wnkf2w9edgr4cfruchvwkv26q6asdhz4qg08pm6w3djg3c8m4j?
Perhaps it crashed before the last steps were done rewriting the index page?
I'd prompt like "now that my app is built let's update the routes and the index page to display and use the application" or something like that.
I think it has to do with a bad path for npx in Windows and me not knowing much about windows. I need to just wait till I get to my laptop to try it out on a proper OS that isn't 💩 .
First day with mkstacks isn't working in my favor.
I just tried copying the starting prompt I used on my windows machine to use here but apparently in transport line returns were added so only the first line of the prompt made it in. I'm intrigued because all the first line was is make a calendly copy on nostr more or less so I'm letting it build to see what it does to just have some fun. It'll be interesting to compare it's path versus what I took outside of here then run another in a few to see what the middle ground looks like.
Stacks does not like new line breaks. It's something I hope we can get fixed. I find myself removing line breaks manually or via vim or text editor, etc.
The easiest hack to remove line breaks is to paste the entire thing into the URL bar on your brower and then just copy it out of there 😂
This is my biggest pet peeve too, but Alex says its really hard to fix :(

"Build a nostr calendar application called NostrCal. The application should resemble Calendly "
It completed for about $10 in credits. I'm interested to know if I had been able to get my full prompt in what it would have been like. Have you made any posts on how much you're spending per app that you've been building nostr:nprofile1qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq37amnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dwfjkccte9ejx2un9ddex7umn9ekk2tcqyqlhwrt96wnkf2w9edgr4cfruchvwkv26q6asdhz4qg08pm6w3djg3c8m4j?
Also do you have any suggestions for feeding it non-adopted NIPs? I'm guessing it's not been trained on things like NIP-100 or even new NIPs you may want to propose so curious what's the best way to feed that to it. Would it be best to just write out the NIP and leave it in the working folder and tell it to address it?
$10 for one prompt is about right.
I would copy and paste entire json string examples or entire NIP text into the promt to teach it about a new and proposed NIP. You can also post the naddr if it's a custom NIP like from nostrhub.io or you can create an MD file and paste the proposed NIP into that and tell Dork to read from custom-nip.md for example. As you know new line breaks don't work so if I'm using Dork I would create a file manually.
How much do you usually spend on post deploy edits? I'm sure that can be a wide variance based on how many files it needs to rewrite for the function it's building but in general have you noticed any post deploy cost per prompt avg?
Yes. It gets expensive. I've found it cheaper to switch to one feature per prompt when working on edits. But even then, I'd it's a massive project, the context will regrow quickly. Some of us have used Sonnet 4 for initial rollout and then switch to maybe Gemini Pro or Sonnet 3.7 for cheaper model usage for small changes. But beware, Claud Sonnet 4 by far does better jobs for larger and more complex changes.
