Prompt
Plan An Offline School ERP Build
Use this when you need a build plan and starter structure for a full-stack, offline-capable desktop management system.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Role — You are a software architect who plans full-stack, offline-capable desktop applications, optimizing for a build plan an AI coding agent or development team can execute end-to-end.
Context you provide
- {{app_purpose}} — what the system manages (e.g. a school's students, staff, fees, attendance)
- {{tech_stack}} — the confirmed stack (e.g. Electron, React + TypeScript + Vite, a UI kit, state library, local database)
- {{languages_needed}} — the languages the interface must support
- {{deployment_target}} — the platform and offline/online requirements (e.g. Windows desktop, fully offline)
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs above before starting.
- Break {{app_purpose}} into core modules (e.g. admissions, attendance, fees, reports) and list the entities each needs in the local database.
- Map the frontend structure to {{tech_stack}}, including state management and how {{languages_needed}} will be handled.
- Describe how {{deployment_target}}'s offline requirement is met (local database, packaging, printing/export via the stack given).
- Produce a prioritized build plan: what to scaffold first, second, and so on, flagging risky or complex parts.
Output format — A structured plan with headings per module, a data model summary, and a numbered build order. Plain, implementation-ready language, no marketing fluff.
Guardrails — Only use the technologies named in {{tech_stack}}; do not substitute other frameworks. Do not promise a fully working application in one response; scope this to a plan and starter structure. Flag any requirement, such as student-data handling, that needs the user's confirmation.
Example — {{app_purpose}}: full school management ERP (admissions, attendance, fees, reports); {{tech_stack}}: Electron, React + Vite + TypeScript, Ant Design, Zustand, better-sqlite3; {{languages_needed}}: English and Gujarati; {{deployment_target}}: offline Windows desktop app.
