Building a fully-functional Human Resources Management (HRM) app can often be a complex and time-consuming process. However, with the power of AI and the right tools, it can become an effortless task. In a recent demonstration, a Human Resources app was created in under five minutes using Aire, an AI-driven app builder. This article breaks down the steps involved and highlights the simplicity and efficiency of this AI-powered process.

Step 1: Setting Up the Prompt

The journey begins with the Aire Prompt-Builder. This tool guides you in creating a concise and clear prompt for Aire to build your application. The user begins by entering the type of business as “enterprise” and the activity as “Human Resources.” Although there are optional fields available to further refine the prompt, Aire’s intelligent design can function efficiently with minimal inputs.

The user selects “medium scope” for the app, indicating a balanced and comprehensive data model size, setting the stage for creating modules in the next step.

Step 2: Creating the Modules

After the initial prompt, Aire generates the modules for the HRM app. The modules represent key functionalities and areas in the app. In this case, Aire suggests the following modules:

• Employee Record
• Leave Request
• Performance Review
• Training Session
• Job Position
• Salary History

Aire provides the flexibility to add or delete modules manually or receive additional suggestions. The user in the demonstration chose to stick with the generated modules, confident in the AI’s choice.

Step 3: Defining the Fields

With the modules in place, the next step is defining the fields within each module. Choosing a “large scope” enables Aire to populate each module with a comprehensive set of fields, each assigned with appropriate field types like text, number, dropdown, and date/time.

For example, within the Employee Record module, the fields include:

• Name
• Date of Birth
• Gender
• Job Title
• Department

Users can review these fields in detail, modifying or deleting them as needed. This flexibility allows for a tailored experience, accommodating specific requirements.

Step 4: Mapping the Relationships

The backbone of an app’s data model is the relationships between different modules and fields. Aire intelligently maps these relationships in just about 90 seconds, linking related fields across modules. Relationships can be one-to-one or one-to-many, and Aire explains the rationale behind each one, enhancing understanding and ensuring logical connections between data points.

Step 5: Creating the UI Pages

The app-building process doesn’t stop at the data model. Aire also creates essential UI pages for the end-user interaction. This includes a Home Page with metrics and charts, a Dashboard, Record Pages, and Record List Pages for each module. The user saves hours of manual effort as Aire generates these pages in around 15 seconds.

Step 6: Previewing the App in Corteza

To visualize the final product, the app is deployed in Corteza. The preview process takes a few minutes, but once completed, the app includes record lists, record pages, charts, metrics, and all the UI pages required. Corteza offers additional customization options like adding calendars, maps, progress bars, tabs, and workflows, allowing for further refinement and integration with third-party data sources.

Final Touches in the Aire Builder

For users seeking more in-depth control, the Aire Builder provides the same functionality as the initial Wizard, allowing further suggestions for modules, fields, and relationships. After any final adjustments, the app can be deployed with a single click, completing the entire app-building process.

Conclusion

In just under five minutes, Aire AI successfully builds a Human Resources Management app, covering all essential aspects like data models, fields, relationships, and UI pages. What traditionally takes days or weeks to accomplish manually can now be achieved in mere minutes. Aire’s combination of intelligent suggestions, flexibility, and speed demonstrates how AI can streamline complex app-building tasks, empowering users to focus on refining and enhancing their final product rather than being bogged down by technical details.

By leveraging the power of Aire AI and tools like Corteza, organizations can create powerful applications with minimal effort and maximum efficiency.
