A prompt to build your own version of LinkedIn

Written by the checker for a first version. Paste it into Vibecode as is, or change it to make the app yours.

Your LinkedIn-style app, first version

Build a web app for professionals in a focused career community to share their work and find jobs. The main screen should show a career feed with an author name, role and text for each post. Let me write a text update and add it to the sample feed locally. Add a Profile tab where I can view and edit my name, headline, work history and skills. Add a Jobs tab with search by job title or company, and let me open each listing to read its description and see an application link. Use a clean navy, white and light gray design with readable cards and clear navigation. Start with realistic sample profiles, posts and job listings. Keep all changes local for this first version.

Opens Vibecode with this prompt ready. Your first build is free.

What a homemade LinkedIn won't have

LinkedIn gives people access to an established network of professionals, recruiters and employers that a homemade network would start without.

  • LinkedIn's existing professional network
  • Recruiters already seeking candidates
  • Employers' active job postings
  • Years of career connection data
