creating an early version of a product to test it’s functionality before full development
prototyping
simplified layout of a webpage or app, focuses on structure
wireframing
used in early stages, and it’s simple and handrawn representation of a UI
Low-Fidelity
4 Characteristics of low-fi
-Sketchy and basic
-Static and non interactive
- quick and inexpensive
- focus on concept, not aesthetic
common forms of lo-fi: hand-drawn screens and layouts
Paper Prototype
common forms of lo-fi: basic digital, mockups with minimal details
Wireframes
common forms of lo-fi: series of sketches showing user interaction
storyboard sequences
closely resembles the actual UI and and it’s detailed and interactive and visually polished
high-fidelity
4 characteristics of hi-fi
- visually detailed
- interactive
- more time-consuming to build
- usability testing ready
common forms of hi-fi: interactive screens with links between pages
clickable wireframes
common forms of hi-fi: simulating real user interaction
mockups with animations
built-in tools like figma, Invision, or adobeXD with high detail interaction
functional prototypes
help deskgners to create Low-Fidelity and high-fidelity prototypes for user testing feedback and design validation
