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

GardenPin turns your iPhone into the ultimate garden companion. Whether you're a home gardener, nursery enthusiast, or plant collector, GardenPin helps you identify, map, and care for every plant in your outdoor space. IDENTIFY ANY PLANT INSTANTLY Point your camera at any plant and GardenPin's multi-source AI engine gives you an instant identification — complete with common name, scientific name, family, and a confidence score. Core ML works entirely on-device, no internet required. Connect a PlantNet API key for cloud-powered cross-referencing. MAP YOUR ENTIRE GARDEN Pin each plant to its exact GPS location on a beautiful interactive map. Create multiple gardens — front yard, back yard, greenhouse — and see your entire collection at a glance. Add custom image overlays to map raised beds, borders, and zones with precision. CARE REMINDERS THAT ACTUALLY HELP Never forget to water, fertilize, prune, or repot again. GardenPin pulls detailed care data including watering frequency, sunlight requirements, and hardiness zone, then lets you set personalized reminders for each plant. PRINT PROFESSIONAL PLANT LABELS Generate QR-coded plant labels and print them via AirPrint or a Brother thermal printer. Scan any label to jump straight back to that plant's full profile in the app. SHARE YOUR GARDENS Share a garden with a friend over WiFi or Bluetooth — no account needed. Export your full plant collection as a CSV for use in spreadsheets or other tools. WORKS WITH iCLOUD Your gardens sync automatically across all your Apple devices via iCloud. Everything works offline and syncs when you reconnect. WHAT'S INCLUDED - AI plant identification (on-device + cloud) - Interactive GPS garden map - Multiple garden support - Care reminders & health tracking - Plant label printing (AirPrint & Brother) - Garden sharing over WiFi/Bluetooth - iCloud sync across all your devices - CSV export GardenPin is designed for iOS 17 and works on iPhone and iPad.

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.
