Ask HN : Startup Building Process

Hello :

When someone has an idea and want to turn it into reality, what are the common steps involved. I found pieces of documents but I havenot found a document that says some simple high level steps. I was thinking of some kind of task list / checklist for a startup. If it is in the form of process flow like MS project it will be even more helpful. Have any of you come across such a document? Here are some of them I think of : 1) Think of resolving a issue of daily life / have a great idea. 2) Build the code and a prototype. 3) Get some marketing. 4) Answer user questions(part of maintainance) 5) Maintain 6) Add features. etc.

Can you please let me know such a document or add your thoughts about it? Thanks and sorry about some basic questions?
