02Step-by-Step Guide
1

Generate a Structured Text Digest

Start with a structured text output of your notifications, pre-categorized by source and urgency. This will serve as the data input for your visual dashboard.

2

Prompt Perplexity Computer

Feed the text digest output into Perplexity Computer. Use a clear instruction for your goal.

Prompt:
Turn this text-based list into a visual dashboard.
3

Define the UI Structure

Instruct the AI to create a three-column Kanban board layout corresponding to your urgency levels: a red column for 'Action Required,' yellow for 'Need to Read,' and green for 'FYIs'.

4

Add Interactivity

Work with the AI to add key features. This includes filters for your source categories (DMs, threads, etc.) and deep links from each item back to the original message in Slack.

5

Implement the 'Archive All' Function

Guide the AI to create a button for the 'FYI' column that not only clears items from the dashboard but also uses the Slack API to mark those messages as read in the Slack app, instantly clearing notification badges.
