What it is

Write and execute your own AI projects without coding.

Real use case example

"A solo developer uses PDD to automate customer onboarding for their Saas. First, they write a prompt in the CLI that describes the desired behavior. Next, they connect their Stripe and Notion accounts. Finally, they run the prompt to generate the automation code. Now, every new Stripe customer is automatically added to Notion and receives a welcome email."

When to use it
  • •When you need to quickly prototype an idea without writing code
  • •When you want to automate repetitive coding tasks
  • •When you need to generate boilerplate code for a new project
Ready-to-paste prompt
```markdown
# My First Prompt
## Generate a Python class
class MyClass:
    pass
```
Heads up: Make sure you have Python 3.8 or later installed, as PDD relies on Python's Markdown parsing capabilities
