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

Capture a note in seconds. Act on it. Archive or delete it. Move on. NoteToSelf is a fast and superclean way to get a thought out of your head and into text. No folders to choose, no tags to assign, no decisions to make. Just open the app and write. HOW IT WORKS Open the app. Write your note. When you're done, swipe right to archive or swipe left to delete. Your next note gets the full screen. That's the entire workflow. YOUR NOTE ON YOUR HOME SCREEN Add the NoteToSelf widget and your active note is always visible — no need to open the app. Medium and Large widgets for the home screen, plus a Lock Screen widget for the thought you can't afford to lose. When the note changes, the widget changes. One thought at a time, everywhere you look. GESTURES THAT MAKE SENSE Swipe right - archive (the safe action) Swipe left - delete (the decisive action) Tap - edit your note Hold - share it Shake - undo a delete (20-second window) Every gesture has its own haptic feedback — light for routine actions, heavier for destructive ones. You'll feel the difference. Or turn haptics off in Settings if you prefer silence. YOUR ARCHIVE Up to 10 archived notes by default. Want more room? Toggle expanded archive in Settings for up to 20. The limit is intentional — it keeps your archive meaningful instead of becoming another junk drawer. WRITING INSIGHTS Track your writing streak, total days written, and average note length. See lifetime statistics and your archive at a glance. Patterns without pressure. DESIGNED FOR iOS 26 Rebuilt for Apple's latest design language — clean glass controls, one accent color. The interface stays out of the way; your words get the screen. PRIVACY Everything stays on your device. No account, no cloud sync, no tracking, no data collection. Export your archive as Markdown anytime. THE PHILOSOPHY Most note apps want you to save everything forever. NoteToSelf takes the opposite approach: capture what matters now, process it, let it go. One active note at a time means no tab-switching between half-finished thoughts. A capped archive means you decide what's worth keeping. These constraints aren't limitations — they're what make the app fast, focused, and calm. Is this for everyone? No. This is for people who think better with fewer open loops. Writers who need a scratch pad, not a filing cabinet. Anyone who's tired of note apps that create more clutter than they solve. One-time purchase. No subscriptions. No ads. No premium tiers. One note at a time. On purpose.

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.
