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

Run Python — and large language models, fully on-device — right on your iPhone and iPad. Pythona is a full-featured Python 3.14 IDE that brings real scientific computing, notebooks, and local AI to your device. Jupyter-style notebooks Write and run Python in cells, just like Jupyter — charts, tables, images, and math render inline. Open, edit, and save .ipynb files to run data analysis and experiments anywhere. On-device AI & machine learning Run large language models entirely on-device with MLX, Apple's ML framework for Apple Silicon — inference runs locally, no API keys required. Try the included local LLM demo to get started in seconds. Scientific computing, preinstalled NumPy, SciPy, scikit-learn, Pandas, Matplotlib, OpenCV and more come precompiled and ready to import. A local Python environment - Python 3.14 with popular libraries - Smart, fast code completion - Syntax highlighting for many languages (JavaScript, C, Rust, Go, HTML, CSS, Shell, and more) - Markdown file preview - Create, save, and organize your scripts, and install more pure-Python packages via the built-in package manager Whether you're prototyping ML ideas, running data analysis, or learning Python on the go, Pythona puts a genuinely capable Python environment in your pocket.

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.

From the Build Kit assessment.

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.
