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

On January 4, 1972, Hewlett-Packard announced the HP-35, world's first scientific calculator small enough to fit in a pocket - more precisely, Bill Hewlett's shirt-pocket. The HP-35 was an immediate hit with students, engineers, and scientists. Despite its steep price of $395 (about $3000 today), it sold ten times better than anticipated in the first year. Experience this unique calculator that won HP the prestigious "IEEE Milestone in Electrical Engineering and Computing" in 2009. Features: • Photo-realistic look-and-feel • Three skins: version 1, versions 2 & 3 (1973) and final version 4 (1974) • Vintage mode and Enhanced mode • Key-click and key-glow, both optional • Swipe left across display to correct number input errors • Cut/copy/paste display value • Display stack registers and memory registers • All decimal points but one light when iPhone battery charge drops below 5% Vintage mode In this mode, peculiarities of a real HP-35 are simulated: - original speed of operation - stack register Z copied to T on trig functions - leading zeros may be entered; zero can be made negative - a negative number may be entered by pressing CHS before or after the number - a keyboard entry or RCL immediately following STO does not raise the stack - for version 1 only: simulation of a number of known arithmetic bugs Enhanced mode - non-volatile stack and registers - use registers 1 through 9 with HP-45-like register arithmetic - register 0 works as LastX register

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.
