	+	# Stepping App - Dad's Idea List (structured)
	+
	+	Source: dad's handwritten list (`IMG_1055.jpg`), transcribed 2026-06-24.
	+	Verbatim items preserved; structured by theme below to seed idea-mapping.
	+
	+	---
	+
	+	## One-liner (what this app is)
	+	A steppin'-community companion app: find classes, DJs, promoters, events and "sets", connect with local steppin' groups in each city, watch/stream videos, and get city travel info (hotels, restaurants, malls, hospitals) when traveling to out-of-town sets and weekenders. Community-driven with comments.
	+
	+	---
	+
	+	## Dad's list - verbatim (two columns as written)
	+
	+	\| Left column \| Right column \|
	+	\|---\|---\|
	+	\| Promoters \| Classes \|
	+	\| Events \| DJ's \|
	+	\| Look @ videos \| Where to find dancing sets (locations) \|
	+	\| Can the app show concert promotions \| Special events \|
	+	\| App should have a live feature \| Comment? Section \|
	+	\| Event locations \| Cities main attraction \|
	+	\| Steppin groups in each city \| Restaurants in each cities \|
	+	\| Additional hotels (location) \| Mall / shopping each city \|
	+	\| Entertainment \| Hospitals / near hotel set (event) \|
	+
	+	---
	+
	+	## Structured by theme (for feature mapping)
	+
	+	1. Core dance content
	+	- Classes - steppin' lessons (find/schedule/list)
	+	- Steppin' groups in each city - local communities/crews
	+	- Where to find dancing sets (locations) - the actual dance gatherings
	+
	+	2. Events
	+	- Events
	+	- Special events
	+	- Promoters - the people/orgs who throw sets & weekenders
	+	- Concert promotions - (dad's open question: "Can the app show concert promotions?")
	+	- Event locations
	+
	+	3. Music
	+	- DJ's - stepping DJs (rosters, who's playing where)
	+
	+	4. Media / Live
	+	- Look @ videos - tutorials, event recaps, performances
	+	- App should have a live feature - live-streamed sets / live event coverage
	+
	+	5. Community
	+	- Comment section - under events/videos/sets
	+
	+	6. Per-city travel guide (for traveling steppers / weekenders)
	+	- Cities' main attraction
	+	- Restaurants in each city
	+	- Mall / shopping each city
	+	- Additional hotels (location)
	+	- Hospitals / near hotel set (event) - safety/medical near the venue
	+	- Entertainment (per city)
	+
	+	7. General / uncategorized
	+	- Entertainment
	+
	+	---
	+
	+	## Open questions to confirm with dad
	+	1. Concert promotions - does he want the app to aggregate/display local concert + stepping event promos, or let promoters post their own? (item is phrased as a question)
	+	2. Live feature - live-streaming sets (heavy: video infra), or just a "happening now / tonight's set" live feed (light)?
	+	3. Per-city travel info - is this a curated guide, or pulled live from APIs (Google Places, Yelp, hotels)? How much should be steppin'-specific vs general?
	+	4. Comment section - on what? Events, sets, videos, classes? Moderation needs?
	+	5. Scope of "each city" - launch cities first (Chicago/Detroit/Atlanta…), or national from day one?
	+	6. Who posts content - promoters/DJs self-serve (accounts), or curated by dad/admin?
	+
	+	---

	+	# Stepping App - Vision Transcription Prompt (for a vision-capable Claude session)
	+
	+	Read these two photos and transcribe dad's handwritten list verbatim, then structure it.
	+
	+	## Source images (on the homelab, canonical paths)
	+	- `/shared/projects/SteppingApp/IMG_1055.jpg` - the handwritten idea list (bad handwriting; read every line carefully)
	+	- `/shared/projects/SteppingApp/IMG_1056.jpg` - a text-message screenshot (already transcribed, see below)
	+
	+	## Already known
	+	- IMG_1056 = text message: "Today 5:19PM - QR code to the stepping app" (dad sending a QR/link)
	+	- Context: this is a "Stepping App" project for dad - likely an app to learn / map out / practise dance "steps" (the handwriting references "promoter classes", "events", "look at videos", "front page", "in each city", "rounds in each"). Treat this as a feature/idea list for the app.
	+
	+	## Your job
	+	1. Transcribe IMG_1055 line-by-line, EXACTLY as written. Do not paraphrase. If a word is illegible, write `[?]` next to your best guess.
	+	2. Then produce a clean, de-duplicated feature/idea list grouped by theme (e.g. Content, Events, Location/City, UI/Pages, Monetisation, Promotion).
	+	3. Flag any ideas that seem technically ambitious or unclear so we can clarify with dad.
	+	4. Output as markdown so dad can paste it straight into his planning.
	+
	+	## On-box Tesseract draft (unreliable - use only as a hint for hard-to-read lines)
	+	Tesseract could NOT read this handwriting. The only fragments it consistently surfaced:
	+	promoter(s) classes · events · "look at videos" · "should have a live..." · "front page" · "in each city" · "rounds in each" · "free ads/adel" · "3.1 ..." · "Set (eve..." · "NAGS>D ATER"
	+	Do not trust these; the vision read is authoritative.
