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.

No ads. Just the information you care about. BUILT FOR SENIORS, LOVED BY ALL Baba is iPad-first with an elegant sidebar, but works beautifully on iPhone. Six text sizes, high contrast mode, adjustable line spacing, and full Dynamic Type support ensure every member of the family reads comfortably.

Open any article in full with one tap. The Politics section goes deeper: a government officials roster across all eight branches, a Rada faction chart with proportional seat visualization, and official statements from Kyiv.

Air raid alerts display active warnings across all 25 Ukrainian oblasts, updated live. FAITH Built for Orthodox Christians in the diaspora. Daily prayer, Pascha countdown, fasting guidance, saints of the day, liturgical tone, and Scripture readings with saint stories — powered by the Orthocal API. The Media tab streams live Orthodox church services and diaspora parish channels with real-time ON AIR status. The Bible browser includes the full KJV and Ivan Ohiienko Ukrainian translation with beautiful typesetting, chapter navigation, and reading progress saved per book. CULTURE A weekly featured Ukrainian historical figure. A monthly craft spotlight with UNESCO heritage notes. On-this-day events from Ukrainian history. Daily proverbs with transliterations and English equivalents. Upcoming holidays and a curated culture news feed. PODCASTS Over 40 curated Ukrainian and English-language shows across news, war, politics, culture, and faith. Full in-app player with variable speed (0.75–2×), skip controls, lock screen integration, and a persistent mini-player bar. RADIO 25+ live stations — news and talk, Ukrainian music, Armed Forces Radio, faith radio, and diaspora broadcasts. Live track metadata, sleep timer, AirPlay support, and category filters included. SEARCH & SAVE Search all content with smart, language-aware suggestions. Bookmark any article for offline reading — full text and images stored on your device. PRIVACY FIRST No user accounts.

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.
