  • Prompt Engineering

    AI

    The skill of writing, structuring, and iterating on instructions—often called prompts—so that an AI model produces the desired output. In coding contexts, good prompt engineering includes providing context, specifying constraints, and showing examples. In vibe coding workflows, clear prompts directly determine code quality. Effective prompt engineering reduces hallucinations, improves specificity, and is essential for getting reliable results from both code generation and agentic tasks.
