Beybox

Beybox.ca is a collection tracker and deck builder for Beyblade X, the spinning-top game I picked up after buying a starter set for my son. Each top is assembled from three parts, the combinations run close to a hundred thousand, and competitive play follows the World Beyblade Organization ruleset, which forbids repeating a part across a deck of three. My collection grew past the point where I could track it, so I built something better than the spreadsheet I had planned.

I designed it first, working with Claude to think through the screens, the rules and the data—a full interactive mockup that told me which screens mattered and which to cut. The app itself was built with Bolt.new, an AI builder you direct in plain language: it set up the sign-in, built the database that keeps each collection its owner’s own, and loaded in the 146-part catalogue I’d gathered and double-checked against the community’s own references. My job was less writing code than checking the work—trying every screen, breaking things on purpose, making sure it matched the design. It’s deliberately a prototype, covering the two main product lines (BX/UX) and stopping there; new parts release every month, and an app that already knows what you own could one day tell you what to build tonight and what’s worth buying next.
