# Mini Project Brief for Your Own AI-Assisted Blog

This is a short template to help you avoid starting from a blank page when you want to build a personal blog, notes site, or simple publishing surface with AI.

## 1. What is it for?

Write it in one sentence:

```text
I want a calm personal space where I can publish practical notes and case studies.
```

## 2. Who is it for?

Example:

```text
For readers who are not professionals yet, but want to learn from concrete examples and try AI-assisted work themselves.
```

## 3. What belongs in the first version?

Choose only a few:

- homepage;
- article page;
- tags;
- search;
- simple admin;
- image or file attachments;
- two languages, if you really need them.

## 4. What stays out for now?

This is just as important:

- public profiles;
- social feed;
- large CMS features;
- analytics dashboard;
- complex permissions;
- anything that does not directly help writing or reading.

## 5. Which technical constraints keep the project focused?

Example:

```text
It should be easy to run, with few dependencies. Content should be easy to save, export, and inspect.
```

## 6. How should you work with AI?

Do not start with one giant request. Split the work into rounds:

1. clarify the goal;
2. define the boundaries of the first version;
3. plan the page structure;
4. sketch the data model;
5. design the admin flow;
6. set the visual direction;
7. test it;
8. write the first article.

At the end of every round, aim for something you can inspect: a document, a screen, a working feature, a test, or upload-ready content.

## 7. A useful closing question for every decision

```text
Does this help writing, reading, or publishing?
```

If not, it can probably wait.
