So I went back to my chats and there wasn't much there to put in a workflow or something. But here are the things that stood out:
> Introduce me to these concepts layer by layer with a textbook style introductions.
> Use color coded boxes etc. just like in textbook to highlight important details.
> Along the way, give me exercises to do myself that would test my understanding so far.
> Put everything in a local HTML file that I can open in my browser.
> The entire textbook should be printable so format accordingly.
That's about it.
The HTML part is important. Earlier I used to document in markdown format, but I found claude/chatgpt does a far better job with formatting and colors in HTML instead. Plus, you can open the HTML file in a browser and refresh when it makes changes.
Another thing: the HTML is built gradually. I keep asking AI some follow up questions and I instruct it to keep the HTML up todate.
