Build and change a project by chatting.
Ask for Changes
Describe what you want as you would to a person. If something isn't right, say so.

Preview
In a Code session, ask Claude to preview my project. It opens next to the conversation and updates as Claude works. Only you can see it; to share a version, publish it to staging.
If the preview stops, ask Claude to restart the preview. Your work is saved in the project's folder either way.
Chat sessions have no preview, so Claude publishes to staging for you to check there.
What Claude Knows
Manifest teaches Claude how to build with the Manifest framework. Claude uses this on its own, so there's nothing to name.
| Area | Prompt ideas |
|---|---|
| Pages and layout | Add an About page Put these three cards in a row |
| Look and feel | Use our brand colors Make the buttons rounder |
| Forms and data | Add a contact form Load our team from this file |
| Accounts | Let people sign in |
| Languages | Add a French version |
| Search and sharing | Improve how pages look when shared |
| Checking | Check everything works before I publish |
Projects built with something else, such as React or Astro, keep their own setup, and Claude edits them the way they're built.
Working as a Team
When several people edit a project, start each session with everyone's latest changes: ask Claude to download the latest published version, or, if the project is on GitHub, to get the latest changes.
If someone published since your copy was made, Manifest stops you from publishing over their work, and Claude helps you catch up first.
