Inspiration
A desire to visualize the rich and expansive history of music genres and their evolution in an intuitive and interactive way.
What it does
It's a vertical, interactive music genre timeline. Users can scroll through the history of music, view details (description and top artists with Spotify links), search, and filter by top-level genres.
How I built it
- Genre JSON data was generated using Gemini
- Small tweaks were made between prompts, with a goal to produce an app with a single prompt
Challenges I ran into
- Directing Bolt to avoid overlapping genre nodes and year markers
- Occasionally Bolt would try to recreate the uploaded genres.json and get stuck in a long-running task
- Convicing Bolt not to add additional elements to the app
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
- Learning more about prompt engineering by experimenting with small prompt tweaks
- Getting creative with how to improve the prompt by leveraging Gemini to analyse a screenshot of the Bolt output and suggest improvements to the prompt
What I learned
- How powerful Bolt is at creating prototypes quickly
- How Bolt can be used to learn new technologies, frameworks, and languages
- How to improve prompts to target specific features of the app
What's next for Music Genre Timeline
- Since this was for the One-Shot Challenge, I only used one initial prompt, so I would continue refining the project using Bolt
Built With
- lucide
