Claude prompt for a fully featured analytics dashboard

Anthropic’s own example of asking Claude for a dashboard that goes beyond a bare-bones first draft.

Anthropic’s prompting guide uses this pair to show that Claude follows instructions closely, so ambitious output has to be asked for. The bare request “Create an analytics dashboard” is the less effective version; this one adds that Claude should include as many relevant features and interactions as possible. To adapt it, say what data the dashboard reads and which metrics matter, and keep the closing line about a fully featured build.

The prompt is quoted from Prompting best practices - Claude API Docs.

Prompt
Create an analytics dashboard. Include as many relevant features and interactions as possible. Go beyond the basics to create a fully-featured implementation.
What it produces
Asks Claude to build an analytics dashboard with more features and interactions than a bare request would get.
