Illustrative example: an invoice app for independent contractors. Your kit is tailored to the app you choose; this is not its generated content.

Feature spec

Goal: Send a clear invoice after finishing a job.

  • Add a client, line items, a due date, and payment instructions.
  • Preview the total before exporting a PDF.
  • Keep an editable draft if export fails.

Screen plan

Invoice editor: Client at the top, editable line items in the middle, total and preview action at the bottom.

States: Empty draft, validation errors beside each field, exporting, and a retry action that preserves the draft.

Differentiate and validate

Hypothesis: Contractors need faster repeat invoices more than more templates.

First experiment: Test duplicating a previous job with five contractors. Watch where they hesitate before expanding the feature set.

The full kit adds a phased build plan, evidence notes, tool prompts, and implementation guidance. It is a plan for your coding agent, not a finished app.

Usage: Mechanics are fair game; never reuse the original name, branding, assets, or verbatim copy.

App Store description

The app frontline workers love to open every day. Blink is where key workers start their day, get stuff done, and feel supported and involved. Everything they need – apps, conversations, tools – is one click away. The result? A measurable boost in engagement, retention – and a thriving, digitally-connected workforce. --- "The best investment we've made in 20 years." – Managing Director, Stagecoach "If you want to be ahead of the curve in how you handle internal communications, Blink is absolutely the way to do it." – Director of Organizational Development, Promises Behavioral Health. "Engagement has gone through the roof." – Director of Communications, State Transit. --- Blink isn't an intranet or a traditional comms app – but it will replace both. Inside Blink, you'll find five core tools that will transform your workforce. 1. A Hub for you to keep tabs of every file, asset and tool on one dashboard. 2. A Feed for posting targeted announcements, stories and updates. 3. A Messenger to get quick answers: group, 121, GIFS, and video calls all enabled. 4. Micro Apps – mini-systems that do pretty much anything you want them to (payslips, leave requests, rotas). 5. A Single Sign-On to take you to any app in seconds, within Blink, without a login. --- Instead of using paper and noticeboards... ... you'll have one (digital) place to keep information up-to-date, centralized, and on the record. Instead of internal updates that go unread... ... you'll build a community and strengthen culture through authentic user-generated stories. Instead of unused tools and forgotten logins... ... you'll be able to access any workplace app in seconds using Single Sign-On. Instead of high costs and overheads... ... your workforce will be able to access Microsoft 365 and Sharepoint without a license. Instead of strain on your IT team... ... you'll have a system that requires no input from them – Blink takes care of itself. Instead of an unreachable frontline workforce... ... you'll be able to access anyone, anytime, anywhere, without an @email address or phone number. --- ABOUT BLINK A single idea inspired Blink: an organization's greatest asset is its frontline. Our goal is to empower every frontline worker to maximize their impact, through frictionless technology that gives them a voice, a sense of belonging, and a better everyday. Over 200 frontline organizations trust us to power their workforce, across sectors like healthcare, transport, logistics, retail and hospitality. Blink is headquartered in London with additional offices in New York and Sydney. We hope you'll give Blink a try today.

Build scope

Plan a focused first version with your coding agent. These are planning assumptions, not a delivery guarantee.

Define the first version

Choose one audience and one core workflow. Use the kit to agree on its screens, data, and acceptance criteria before building.

Set boundaries

Decide which secondary features, integrations, and platform support can wait. Your version does not need to reproduce everything in the original.

Check the hard parts

Validate external services, specialist technology, data access, and ongoing costs for your chosen scope.

A reliable timeline needs an agreed scope and a technical check. Ask your agent to estimate the phases in BUILD_PLAN.md after that review.
