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.

We've collected all the locations for you, geo-located them, and organized them by season and state. Every venue from the show is in the app, including the closed locations or those that have changed hands and names. Some of the restaurants have closed over the years. We've left them in the directory, but added the word *Closed* to the name of each so you don't waste your time trying to go there. Major features: ► 980 Locations (as of 8/5/2017) and updated every week after the new episode airs, which is more than every other app – including the Food Network's own Food on the Road app (because we own them all and we check each week). Also, we regularly update closed or new addresses as we're informed by users. ► All locations are sortable by distance, alphabet, season, and state: ► Links to 456 recipes (so far) featured on the show (which you can also use as Guy's eating list) ► A Near Me map that lets you see as many or as few locations as you want ► Recipes are sortable by season or by type of dish (main, side, breakfast, etc). ► Post your visits to your Facebook or Twitter account. ► Leave comments about why you love each location for others to see. ► Update button if you find a mistake or a closed location ► Facebook, Twitter and Yelp links for every location that has them ------------------- Subscription - Track where you've been and where you haven't for $0.99/year reoccurring. - Checkin subscription is $0.99 annually, letting the user track which locations they've been to, and which ones they haven't. - Payment will be charged to your iTunes account at confirmation of purchase. - Your subscription will automatically renew annually unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24-hours before the end of the current subscription period. - Your account will be charged for renewal within 24-hours prior to the end of the current subscription period.

Terms of Service - http://bit.ly/gla-terms This app is not affiliated with the Food Network or Guy Fieri, but created using publicly available information about the locations highlighted in the Diners, Drive-ins and Dives TV show. GoLocalApps designs travel and wine region apps and this one was a labor of love as we enjoy the show and wanted to find the diners as we traveled around the country. So we did this for ourselves and are sharing it with you. If you have any problems with the app, or have suggestions use the support link or email us at [email protected]. We'll be happy to help you troubleshoot any issues. Content by Ross Rojek (GoLocalApps has made apps for wine regions, downtown associations, restaurant chains and TV shows.

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.
