Photosynthesis converts sunlight + COโ + HโO โ glucose + Oโ. Occurs in chloroplasts. Key stages: Light reactions and Calvin cycle.
Sound familiar?
These are the real challenges students face when studying from notes.
Drowning in Long Notes
Struggling to understand pages of dense notes? It's hard to know what actually matters when everything looks important.
Wasting Time Rereading
Reading the same paragraph five times without retaining anything? Passive rereading is one of the least effective study methods.
No Way to Test Yourself
Without practice questions, you don't discover what you don't know until it's exam day. Testing yourself is proven to work better.

Input: Sample Note
The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell. It produces ATP through a process called cellular respiration. This involves three main stages: glycolysis (in the cytoplasm), the Krebs cycle (in the mitochondrial matrix), and the electron transport chain (on the inner mitochondrial membrane). Oxygen is required for aerobic respiration, producing 36โ38 ATP molecules per glucose molecule.
Mitochondria = cell's energy factory
๐ Key Points:
- โข Produces ATP via cellular respiration
- โข 3 stages: Glycolysis โ Krebs Cycle โ Electron Transport Chain
- โข Requires oxygen (aerobic)
- โข Yields 36โ38 ATP per glucose

Built spec-first with Claude
This app was built for the Devpost Spec Driven Development hackathon โ where the goal isn't competition, it's learning the habit of planning before building.
๐ ๏ธ The Process
- 1Used the Devpost Claude Code plugin to plan with an AI learning partner
- 2Defined scope: single-session, no auth, three core AI actions
- 3Wrote user stories and acceptance criteria before touching any UI
- 4Made architecture decisions upfront: Next.js, API routes, prompt design
- 5Built feature-by-feature against the checklist, not vibes
๐ก What I Learned
- Spec-driven development โ Planning before building produced cleaner code and a clearer scope.
- Flipped prompting โ Having the AI interview me surfaced requirements I'd have missed going the other way.
- Context management โ Keeping AI productive across sessions requires deliberate state in your prompts.
- Scope discipline โ Explicitly deciding what's out (file upload, auth, history) saved hours of scope creep.
Planning Artifacts
Scope Document
What's in v1, what's explicitly out of scope, and why.
PRD
User stories and acceptance criteria written before any code.
Technical Spec
Architecture decisions made upfront โ Next.js, API routes, AI provider.
Build Checklist
Step-by-step tasks derived from the spec and tracked throughout the build.
