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

Pixel is a retro-inspired digital camera that transforms everyday photos into 90s video game style pixel art. This camera is not about precision. It's about rekindling the sense of play that gets lost in today’s world of overly perfect, sanitized photography. By stripping away resolution, Pixel lets you see everyday subjects in a new way. Shoot live photos with real dithering, crunchy low-res pixelation and vintage charm or import any picture from your library and instantly apply authentic retro effects. Transform selfies, pets, landscapes with pixelated distortion, nostalgic grain, analog-style noise, lofi textures and soft sharpening artifacts that feel genuinely 1990s (without exaggeration). Rediscover the joy of lo-fi photography: shoot in the moment or import existing images for dreamy aesthetic feeds, childhood nostalgia vibes, lo-fi social content or pure fun with friends. No internet required, no logins, no paywalls - just pure creative freedom wherever you go. Grab your phone, disappear into the 90s and dither away whenever inspiration strikes. The retro magic is always ready when you are.

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.
