Need help prompting? I made a fun thing with @aaronw.dev
that works like "gi" for gitignore, but with prompts. Need a react component and don't know the prompt? Try "peep react-component" in your CLI:

tek.pub
peep | Prompts on demand
AI prompting made easy with ready-to-use scripts for developers and creators
