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

After excessive watering, lack of light is the second most common cause of death of indoor plants. Better light conditions will keep your plants healthy. Measure your plants’ ideal light levels for the price of a cup of coffee! How to use: - Launch the application - Point the camera toward the plant’s leaves - Press the “Measure” button How to interpret the measurement: - Very low light: Difficult conditions for plants to survive. - Low light: For plants that can tolerate low levels of light, such as the aglaonema, parlor palm, and philodendron. - Medium light: For the majority of indoor plants, such as the Dracaena, Pothos, and spider plant. - High light: For plants that love light, such as the zebra plant, areca palm, and croton. Features: - Detection of natural light & artificial lights - Compatible with rear camera only Notes: This application allows you to measure the light levels of indoor plants. However, if you need very precise measurements, the use of professional equipment is recommended.

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.
