Official basis Explicitly request "above and beyond" behavior when you want it. docs ↗
The prompt
Build <thing>. Include as many relevant features and interactions as you can think of — go beyond the basics to create a fully-featured version, not a minimal one.Why it works

Fill in
<thing>— the app, page, or component to build out.
