You can build software without writing software

Twenty years ago, building an interactive quiz meant learning a programming language. Today, you can describe what you want in plain English and most AI apps will do the heavy lifting. We're going to build a quiz bot that grades itself.

What you need

A free ChatGPT account (for Custom GPTs) or Claude account (for Projects)
A topic you actually know well — your favorite show, sport, or game
About 20 minutes of focus

The five-step build

Pick a topic narrow enough that you can list 10 facts about it
Open Custom GPTs (ChatGPT) or Projects (Claude). Click "new".
In the instructions, say: "You are a quiz bot for the topic of X. Ask one multiple-choice question at a time. Wait for an answer. Tell the user if they're right or wrong. After 5 questions, give a final score."
Test it yourself. Note what's broken.
Edit the instructions and re-test. Two or three loops usually fixes most issues.

Vague instructions	Sharp instructions
Quiz me on Pokemon	Ask one multiple-choice question about Gen 1 Pokemon, with 4 options labeled A-D. Wait for my answer.
Make it fun	Use exactly one emoji per question. Tell a one-sentence joke when I get one wrong.

Try it: ship one and share

Build a quiz on a topic you love. Then share the link with one friend or family member and watch them use it. The first three things they get confused by are your bug list — go fix them in the instructions.
