A Brief History of Time
Wireframes vs. Mockups vs. Prototypes
A wireframe is a visual representation of the content of
a page or app. It is a visualization tool and process for presenting proposed functionality, structure, and content of a web page, website, or application.

A mockup consists of one or several static pictures that
resemble the future UI of the application in as many aspects as possible.

A prototype is an early sample, model, or release of
a product built to test a concept or process or to act as a thing to be replicated or learned from.

Why Prototype?
“Want to increase innovation? Lower the cost of failure.” -Joi
Ito
Ideas are cheap.
Development is expensive.
The Customer
–Jony Ive “There are 9 rejected ideas for every idea
that works.”
None
–Frank Lloyd Wright “You can use an eraser on the
drafting table or a sledge hammer on the construction site.”

No, designers don’t need to learn to code.
But your team can probably build better products.
And prototyping in code will help your team build better
products.
