Use the Prompt

Prompt
Add Your Brief

Add your context below. It will be included with the prompt when you copy or download.

Create an interactive frontend prototype using the existing project stack and explicitly labeled demo data for [PROJECT] and [AUDIENCE]. The task is: Project Workspace Dashboard.

Required content and structure

Show recent work, assigned tasks, deadlines and project activity with clear priorities.

Use [APPROVED_CONTENT] as the source of names, dates, figures, claims and destinations. List missing inputs before substituting anything. If a demonstration is needed, label its content as fictional. Do not invent customer quotes, rankings, partner logos or product capabilities.

Design direction

Use [BRAND_RULES] and the design system already selected in the project. If no system is supplied, start with this direction: light neutral canvas, graphite text, cobalt accent and precise hairline separators; dense but legible hierarchy. Keep type, spacing and color roles consistent. Prioritize the task over decorative elements and avoid a generic collection of unrelated cards.

Content preparation

Choose the user's most important daily decisions and supply projects, assigned tasks, deadlines and activity records. Distinguish personal responsibility from general team updates.

Layout and behavior

Prioritize work that needs action, then recent projects and supporting activity. Avoid making every metric or event equally prominent; the dashboard should explain where to resume.

Task-specific acceptance check

  • Distinguish personal actions from team activity and preserve empty states.
  • Test a new workspace, an overdue task and a project with no recent activity.
  • Keep the next action clear without filling empty space with fictional productivity numbers.

Implementation and review

Keep text editable. Use semantic structure, descriptive controls, visible keyboard focus and appropriate empty/error states. Check narrow and wide layouts. Respect reduced-motion preferences. Preserve any existing project framework and dependencies; do not silently replace the stack. Return the editable files and explain any incomplete behavior or unsupported inputs. Review this specific task before proposing extra features.

Reference attachment and reconstruction goal

Attach reference.webp from this prompt’s download bundle alongside this prompt in OpenDesign. Build an editable result with a similar composition and hierarchy; do not embed the whole reference image as the finished interface. Preserve approved project content and brand rules if they conflict with fictional sample labels. If the image is missing or unreadable, ask for it instead of claiming visual fidelity.

Reference composition and content

Use the attached reference.webp as the visual reference for Project Workspace Dashboard. Before building, identify the major regions from top to bottom, their relative widths and heights, alignment, spacing, typography hierarchy, surface colors, borders, imagery and repeated components. Preserve those relationships rather than substituting a generic template. Required task content: Show recent work, assigned tasks, deadlines and project activity with clear priorities. Use the following task-specific layout guidance when translating the image into editable elements: Prioritize work that needs action, then recent projects and supporting activity. Avoid making every metric or event equally prominent; the dashboard should explain where to resume.

Interaction specification

The reference is a static concept: the behavior below is a requirement to implement, not proof that the picture already works. Copy the customized prompt into your working project. Start with the core task: Show recent work, assigned tasks, deadlines and project activity with clear priorities. Distinguish personal actions from team activity and preserve empty states. For each visible control, specify its trigger, affected state and feedback; implement local changes with consistent state across related views. Give search and filters real results, selection controls an explicit active state, and save actions visible pending/success/failure feedback where relevant. Do not add unrelated workflows. Use proper links for navigation, buttons for actions and accessible names for icon controls. Do not imply a backend operation succeeded when only a local demo changed.

Visual comparison and delivery

  1. Compare the result with the attached image at matching proportions. Review major region placement, relative image sizes, line breaks, spacing, typography hierarchy, contrast, active states and content density before polishing decorative details.
  2. Then test the narrow layout without squeezing desktop text into tiny labels.
  3. Keep logos, photos and icons as separate assets and all meaningful labels editable. List any unavailable fonts/assets and any intentional departures. Return the working files plus a concise account of implemented behavior and remaining integrations; do not promise a pixel-identical result from the prompt alone.

How to Write a Project Workspace Dashboard Design Prompt

Use this project workspace dashboard design prompt to show recent work, assigned tasks, deadlines and project activity with clear priorities.

The reference is an AI-generated concept. The instructions below describe what to build and test; the image does not demonstrate working behavior.

Prioritize the User's Next Action

A workspace dashboard can become an undifferentiated feed.

AI-generated visual concept for project workspace dashboard
Project Workspace Dashboard — compare the overall hierarchy with the layout instructions below.

Separate the user's assigned work and deadlines from team activity so the first screen answers what needs attention now. Prioritize work that needs action, then recent projects and supporting activity. Avoid making every metric or event equally prominent; the dashboard should explain where to resume.

From the Prompt

Prioritize work that needs action, then recent projects and supporting activity.

Make It Your Own

Lead with [MY_TASKS] and upcoming [DEADLINES]. Place recent projects and team activity in supporting regions, with each item opening its actual task or project.

Prepare the Project Workspace Dashboard Content

Tasks and activity use parallel columns; specify assignment, due state and activity records rather than a collection of decorative metrics.

Choose the user's most important daily decisions and supply projects, assigned tasks, deadlines and activity records. Distinguish personal responsibility from general team updates.

From the Prompt

Show recent work, assigned tasks, deadlines and project activity with clear priorities.

Make It Your Own

For [PROJECT], use [APPROVED_CONTENT] as the source for this project workspace dashboard. Choose the user's most important daily decisions and supply projects, assigned tasks, deadlines and activity records. Distinguish personal responsibility from general team updates. Identify missing inputs before replacing them with demonstration content.

Check an Empty Personal Queue

The right rail keeps deadlines above recent work; define sorting and destinations so these compact records remain useful.

Upcoming deadlines and recent files in the Project Workspace Dashboard reference concept
Upcoming deadlines and recent files.

A new teammate may have no assigned work while the team feed is busy. Give that state a relevant starting action without pretending team activity is their responsibility. Test a new workspace, an overdue task and a project with no recent activity. Keep the next action clear without filling empty space with fictional productivity numbers.

From the Prompt

Distinguish personal actions from team activity and preserve empty states.

Make It Your Own

Review the project workspace dashboard against this requirement: Distinguish personal actions from team activity and preserve empty states. Test a new workspace, an overdue task and a project with no recent activity. Keep the next action clear without filling empty space with fictional productivity numbers. Preserve approved content and revise only the parts that fail this check.

Review Your Project Workspace Dashboard Result

A convincing screen is not a working backend. Test validation, permissions, persistence and failure behavior separately before connecting real data.

  • Test a new workspace, an overdue task and a project with no recent activity. Keep the next action clear without filling empty space with fictional productivity numbers.

Follow-Up Prompt

Use this after the first result. It narrows the revision to the most important part of this task.

Refine the current project workspace dashboard. Test a new workspace, an overdue task and a project with no recent activity. Keep the next action clear without filling empty space with fictional productivity numbers. Preserve the approved content and visual direction; change only the parts needed to resolve these issues.
