AI Development

AppBoost includes AI instructions for popular editors to help you code faster and maintain consistency.

Interactive Setup Wizard

AppBoost includes a /appboost command that guides you through configuring your entire project. The wizard helps you set up:

  • App settings - Name, bundle IDs, and basic configuration
  • Supabase - Authentication, database tables, and RLS policies
  • RevenueCat - In-app purchases and subscriptions
  • Push notifications - Expo push notification setup
  • PostHog - Analytics setup

The wizard can also configure MCP servers for Supabase and RevenueCat, allowing the AI to directly manage your backend and products.

Claude Code  is a powerful terminal-based AI assistant.

  1. Install Claude Code following the official guide 
  2. Navigate to your AppBoost project folder
  3. Run claude to start chatting with AI
  4. Type /appboost to run the interactive setup wizard

Getting Started with Cursor

Cursor  is a code editor with built-in AI, great for visual learners.

  1. Download from cursor.com 
  2. Open your AppBoost project folder
  3. Press Cmd+L (Mac) or Ctrl+L (Windows) to open AI chat
  4. Type /appboost to run the interactive setup wizard

Available AI Instructions

AppBoost includes pre-written instructions that teach the AI about your project:

  • Claude Code: .claude/instructions.md
  • Cursor: .cursor/rules/cursor-rules.mdc (automatically loaded)
  • GitHub Copilot: .github/copilot-instructions.md
  • Windsurf: Works with Claude instructions

These files work automatically - no setup needed.

Tips for Talking to AI

  • Be specific: Instead of “make it better”, say “make the button bigger and blue”
  • Mention existing components: Say “use the existing Button component”
  • Ask questions: “Explain what this code does”
  • Make small requests: Break big features into smaller steps
