Cheat Sheet (Tips for Success)

1. Start by delegating small tasks and then you can increase their scope. You and the AI agents need to learn to work together.
2. Specify relevant files, folders and components by name - better yet, use @ to tag them into your prompt.
3. Write clear, detailed specs so Fine knows exactly what you’re trying to accomplish. We recommend starting out with the Given-Where-When format to flesh out your instructions.

Examples of Tasks to start off delegating:

1. UI/UX Improvements
2. Adding new API endpoints
3. Add new stories.js documentation
4. Adding new columns to a database and updating queries to filter records based on new data
5. Minor bugs with easy fixes

The Fine Print

1. The challenge begins on 23.12.24 and ends on 7.1.24
   Bonus extension - new deadline 31.1.25!
2. To enter the challenge, developers must post three screenshots or recordings to twitter (x) in separate tweets, each one showing a task delegated to Fine, including the prompt, implementation plan and code changes.
3. Each tweet must show a separate task.
4. The task must involve adding or editing code and meet the approval of Fine’s judging committee.
5. Users must have at least 100 followers on Twitter. If a user has less than 100 followers, the entry will be considered if it receives more than 500 impressions & 30 likes, subject to the approval of Fine’s judging committee.
