The first version of an app is often blocked before the code starts. The audience is fuzzy, the promise is too broad and “marketing” is a list of unrelated tasks. A launch brief gives the idea a shape you can actually work with.
What the brief should answer
Who is this for? Name the person and the moment they are trying to improve.
What changes after they use it? Write one observable outcome rather than a collection of features.
What will the store page show? Decide the first screenshot, the plain-language description and the smallest believable proof.
Where will the first ten people find it? Pick one channel and one helpful artifact instead of promising to “do social media.”
Why private matters
Early product thinking is messy. A local-first workspace lets you explore the idea without turning every half-formed note into a public post or another account to maintain.
