10 Prompts You Can Copy to Build Real Apps Today
Skip the Blank Page. Start With These.
The hardest part of using any no-code app builder is knowing what to type first. We analyzed over 44,000 prompts from Airo AI Builder users and found that 14% of them are 3 words or fewer. “Make me a website” doesn’t give the AI much to work with.
These 10 prompts are ready to copy and paste. Each one is based on the most common use cases we see in the product, pulled from real prompt data and the verticals our users build for most. This is vibe coding at its best: paste a prompt, customize a few details for your business, and you’ll have a working app in minutes.
1. Restaurant Website with Online Ordering
Copy this prompt:
“Build a restaurant website for a Mediterranean restaurant called Olive & Fig in Austin, TX. Include a homepage with hero image and featured dishes, a full menu organized by category (appetizers, mains, desserts, drinks) with prices, an online ordering system where customers can add items to a cart and checkout for pickup or delivery, an about page with our story, a photo gallery, and a contact page with Google Maps embed, hours, and a reservation form. Warm, earthy color scheme.”
What it builds: A complete restaurant site with an interactive menu, ordering cart, checkout, reservation system, and location page. The database stores menu items and orders.
Customize it: Swap in your restaurant name, location, cuisine type, and menu categories. Add “connect to GoDaddy Payments for payment processing” if you want to accept online payment.
2. Appointment Booking App
Copy this prompt:
“Build an appointment booking app for a dog grooming salon called Paws & Suds. Services: bath ($30, 45 min), full groom ($60, 90 min), nail trim ($15, 15 min), puppy package ($45, 60 min). Customers select a service, pick a date and available time slot (Mon-Sat, 8 AM-5 PM), and enter their name, phone, email, and dog’s name and breed. Show a confirmation screen after booking. Admin dashboard to view all upcoming appointments, mark as completed, and block off unavailable dates.”
What it builds: A booking system with service selection, calendar, customer intake form, confirmation, and a full admin backend. All bookings are stored in a database.

Add a dedicated contact page with a form (name, email, project type dropdown, budget range, message) that sends submissions to alex@email.com. Include a resume/CV download link. Minimal, clean design with a monochrome palette and one accent color.”
What it builds: A professional portfolio with project case studies, a working contact form with email delivery, and a downloadable CV link.
Customize it: Change the name, discipline, and project categories. Swap the design direction to match your style (“bold and colorful” or “dark mode with neon accents” instead of monochrome). Add “include client testimonials on the homepage” if you have them.
4. Online Store with Product Catalog
Copy this prompt:
“Build an online store for a small business selling handmade jewelry integrated with GoDaddy Commerce so I can use the product catalog feature.

Clients log in to see their dashboard with: project status (in progress, review, completed), list of deliverables with download links, upcoming milestones with dates, an invoice section showing paid and outstanding invoices, and a message thread to communicate with the team.

How to Get the Most Out of These Prompts
- Copy the prompt, then replace the specifics. Business name, location, services, pricing, and design preferences are the first things to customize.
- Don’t remove detail to make it shorter. Longer, more specific prompts produce better results. The prompts above are detailed on purpose.
- One task per prompt when refining. Your first prompt can be big and detailed. But when you’re making changes afterward, keep each follow-up focused on one thing (“change the color scheme” or “add a contact form”) rather than bundling five requests into one message.
- Iterate after the first build. Your first result is a strong starting point. Use follow-up prompts to refine the design, add features, or fix anything that doesn’t look right. Think of it as a conversation, not a one-shot.
- Include your real business details. Paste in your actual business name, address, services, prices, and hours. The AI will use them directly instead of filling in generic placeholders you’ll have to replace later.
- Combine ideas. Want a restaurant site with a booking system and an online store? Take elements from Prompts 1, 2, and 4 and merge them into one prompt.
