Starter prompt

Use this as a scoping prompt, not as permission to skip review and testing.

Build a focused Customer portal MVP using Next.js, Django, PostgreSQL. Implement Account dashboard, Document access, Status tracking, Profile settings. Keep scope narrow and production-minded. Explicitly test Object-level authorization, Sensitive document exposure, Notification reliability. Add authorization, validation, structured errors, rate limits where appropriate, and a small production-readiness test plan before adding optional integrations.
Common questions

FAQ

Can AI build a Customer portal completely by itself?

AI can accelerate much of a Customer portal MVP, but production quality still requires human review, testing, security decisions and ownership of the highest-risk workflows.

How hard is it to build a Customer portal?

SkillChirp rates this scope as Intermediate. The MVP estimate is 1–3 days, while a more production-ready version is roughly 4–10 days for a focused first release.

What should I build first?

Start with the narrowest workflow: Account dashboard, Document access, Status tracking. Delay optional integrations until that path is reliable and users prove they need more.
