Design and Prototyping

Prototyping

Prototyping is the process of creating an early model or sample of a product to test and validate its design and functionality. Here is a simple breakdown:

  • Concept: Start with an idea or concept that needs to be developed into a tangible form.
  • Interactive Prototypes: Build interactive prototypes using tools like Figma, Adobe XD, or Invision. These prototypes allow stakeholders and users to interact with the design as if it were a real website.
  • Model Creation: Build a preliminary version of the product, often using materials or techniques that can be quickly and cost-effectively changed.
  • Testing: Conduct usability testing with the interactive prototype to gather feedback and identify any design issues. Testing may include tasks like navigating the site, using key features, and providing feedback on usability.
  • Iteration: Refine and modify the prototype based on feedback and testing results. Multiple iterations may be created to perfect the design.
