From Idea to Production Software: The Actual Engineering Blueprint
Clear, structured, and modular engineering execution: MVP development priority, 10 relational PostgreSQL tables, REST API specifications, and cross-functional team sprint allocations.
Disciplined Phased Execution Timeline
We build the core revenue engine first, followed by cloud hosting, automated billing, and the marketplace.
Foundation & Core Authentication
Exit Gate: Users can register, log in, and view their project dashboard.
AI Studio & Code Generation MVP
Exit Gate: User prompt generates a working multi-page React application.
Cloud Deployment Engine
Exit Gate: Generated application is live on the public web with SSL in < 30 seconds.
Billing & Monetization Engine
Exit Gate: First 100 paying customers processed through Stripe.
Marketplace Beta
Exit Gate: External creators publishing templates and earning revenue.
Ten Core MVP Database Tables
Type-safe schema with strict foreign keys, timestamps, indexes, and row-level tenant security.
Tables Directory
| Column Name | Data Type | Constraints & Defaults |
|---|---|---|
| id | UUID | PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT gen_random_uuid() |
| name | VARCHAR(255) | NOT NULL |
| VARCHAR(255) | UNIQUE NOT NULL | |
| password_hash | VARCHAR(255) | NOT NULL |
| avatar_url | TEXT | — |
| role_id | UUID | REFERENCES roles(id) |
| status | VARCHAR(50) | DEFAULT 'active' |
| created_at | TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE | DEFAULT NOW() |
