The prompt

The exact prompt that built this app. Give it to your agent to build the app from scratch with Elements, or use it to compare what other tools make from the same ask.

Build an applicant tracking system named applyfold for a growing startup, with a
public careers page.

PUBLIC
- Careers page listing open jobs, each with a description page.
- Apply: name, email, phone, resume upload (PDF), a short answer.
- The applicant gets a confirmation email.

HIRING TEAM (accounts: admin and interviewer)
- Admins create jobs (title, team, location, markdown description, open or
  closed).
- Each job's pipeline board: applied, screen, interview, offer, hired,
  rejected. Drag a candidate to move them.
- Candidate page: resume preview, application answers, notes, and interview
  scorecards (1 to 4 on each of three criteria plus a recommendation).
- Interviewers see only candidates assigned to them and fill in scorecards.
- Moving a candidate to rejected offers to send a polite rejection email.

Seed one admin, two interviewers, three open jobs, and fifteen candidates
across stages with a few scorecards. Show the seeded logins on the sign-in
page.

Board moves and new applications update in real time.
