Ralph Templates
February 6, 2026 ยท View on GitHub
A collection of markdown spec files that ralph-starter can use as input to generate full projects autonomously.
Note: This repo contains spec files only, not full projects. For built project demos, see ralph-showcase.
What are Spec Files?
Spec files are structured markdown documents that describe a project to build. They include:
- Overview - What the project does
- Features - Key functionality to implement
- Tasks - Step-by-step implementation checklist
- Tech Stack - Technologies to use
- Files to Create - Expected file structure
Ralph reads these specs and builds the entire project autonomously.
