Your App Has to Work
From AI Prototype to Working Product: A Nontechnical Guide to Teams and Solo Development
You can get an app on a screen with AI. Then two people book the same slot, a payment arrives late, or yesterday’s fix breaks today’s work.
One project, two ways through it
In this book, I follow a Client and a development team from that prototype to release 1.0. What do you bring to a meeting? How do you explain the work your app has to support? And what does the team do after the conversation ends?
With a development team
Follow the questions, meetings, decisions, and checks that turn a prototype into a working product. See how each role contributes, what information the team needs, and what a completed result looks like.
Rewind: solo with AI
Return to the same starting point and organize the work yourself with AI. Clear tasks, saved decisions, tests, and a point at which to bring in a specialist.
Keep the references nearby
Appendices A-I, working templates, and a glossary of 163 terms support the story. The book is written for the person whose work the application needs to serve, including someone who has already built a prototype with AI.
