🧭 Prompt Writing Principles

This collection follows prompt engineering principles to maximize clarity, reliability, and usefulness:

• Start with the outcome – Prompts are designed with specific output goals
• Assign a role to the AI – e.g., “You are a senior backend engineer…”
• Use constraints – Limit scope, format output, or request structured responses
• Show examples – Few-shot prompts guide better completions
• Break complex tasks into steps – Chain of thought prompting where needed
• Iterate and refine – Prompts are tested and improved regularly
