How to Build Interactive Web Pages with Div-idy

Interactive pages come from prompts that describe behavior—what happens when a user clicks, types, drags, filters, or submits a form. This guide shows exactly what to include in your prompt so Div-idy generates a truly interactive experience (not just a static page).

Quick Answer

To generate interactive web pages, your prompt should include: (1) the actions the user can take (click, submit, search, filter), (2) the state the page should remember (saved items, counters, settings), (3) the UI components (buttons, inputs, modals), and (4) any rules (validation, empty states, error messages). The clearer the behavior, the more interactive the result.

What to include in an “interactive” prompt

  • User actions: What can the user do? (add, remove, edit, filter, sort, submit)
  • State/data: What should the app remember while using it? (selected items, totals, toggles)
  • Persistence: Should it save anything? (localStorage for simple saved data)
  • UI feedback: Loading states, success messages, errors, confirmations
  • Edge cases: Empty lists, invalid inputs, duplicate items, max/min values
  • Mobile behavior: Responsive layout and touch-friendly controls
Tip

Don’t ask for “JavaScript” directly—describe what should happen. Div-idy will implement the behavior automatically.

Prompt framework (copy/paste)

If you want a reliable structure, this format works well: 

Create an interactive web page for: [WHAT IT IS]

Features:
- User can: [ACTION 1], [ACTION 2], [ACTION 3]
- UI includes: [COMPONENTS]
- Rules/validation: [RULES]
- Empty states: [WHAT TO SHOW IF THERE'S NO DATA]
- Save data: [YES/NO — localStorage if yes]
- Style: [MODERN/CLEAN/DARK MODE/etc]
- Mobile: responsive and touch-friendly

Examples of good interactive prompts

1

Interactive checklist

A simple prompt that creates real behavior (add/check/delete + saved state).

Create an interactive checklist web page.

Features:
- Add new tasks, mark complete, edit text, delete tasks
- Filter: All / Active / Completed
- Show a counter of tasks remaining
- Save tasks in localStorage so they persist on refresh
- Include empty state text when there are no tasks
- Clean, modern UI and fully responsive on mobile
2

Form with validation

Great for lead forms, contact forms, and signup flows.

Create an interactive contact form page.

Features:
- Fields: name, email, message
- Validate: required fields + valid email format
- Disable submit while invalid
- Show inline error messages and a success confirmation after submit
- Include a clear reset/clear button
- Modern layout with a sticky header and responsive styling
3

Filterable list

Perfect for directories, menus, galleries, and catalogs.

Create an interactive directory page for local restaurants.

Features:
- A list of cards with name, cuisine, price range, and neighborhood
- Search box filters as the user types
- Dropdown filters: cuisine and price
- Sort: rating high→low and alphabetically
- Clicking a card opens a modal with full details
- Empty state when no results match
- Responsive design and keyboard-accessible interactions

Making edits after the first generation

Once your page loads, you can iterate with short prompts. You don’t need to repeat the entire original prompt— just say the change you want. 

Example edit prompts:
- Add an Undo button for deleting items
- Make the modal close when clicking outside of it
- Add a confirmation step before clearing everything
- Improve mobile spacing and make buttons bigger
