Create Project: Scaffold a Complete Project

You are scaffolding a new project from scratch. Follow these steps to create a well-structured, immediately runnable project.

Step 1: Understand Requirements

Clarify what the user wants to build. Consider:

• What type of project? (web app, game, tool, script, API, etc.)
• What technologies? (HTML/CSS/JS, Python, Node.js, etc.)
• Any specific features or requirements mentioned?

Step 2: Plan the Structure

Before writing any code, briefly outline:

• File structure (keep it simple — avoid over-engineering)
• Core components/modules
• Key dependencies (prefer zero-dependency or minimal dependencies)

Step 3: Build It

Write all files using the Write tool. Follow these principles:

For Web Projects (HTML/CSS/JS)

• Prefer single-file HTML for simple projects (inline CSS + JS)
• Use modern ES6+ JavaScript, CSS Grid/Flexbox
• Make it visually polished — apply frontend-design principles
• Must be immediately openable in a browser

For Python Projects

• Include a main entry point (main.py or app.py)
• Add requirements.txt if external packages needed
• Include clear usage instructions in comments at top

For Node.js Projects

• Include package.json with scripts
• Use ES modules where possible
• Include a README with setup instructions

General Principles

• Write complete, working code — no placeholders or TODOs
• Include error handling for common failure cases
• Add brief comments only where logic is non-obvious
• Make the project immediately runnable with minimal setup

Step 4: Verify & Report

After creating all files:

• Briefly list all created files
• Provide the exact command to run the project
• Note any prerequisites (e.g., "open index.html in browser" or "run python main.py")
