- Be specific — “Make it better” is vague; “Add more padding and make the text darker” is actionable
- One thing at a time — Small prompts beat big prompts
- Include context — Reference what you just did or what you’re trying to achieve
- Describe outcomes — “When the user clicks X, they should see Y”
- Reference examples — “Like Notion’s sidebar” conveys a lot
