ten tips ten tips ten tips fourth act
1. Communication Between the whole team, during the whole project.
2. Design & dev, together A lot of decissions have
to be taken along the way.
3. Micro-deliveries Client takes part actively and makes decisions.
4. Content first Make an inventory of the content and
find its limitations.
5. Find the critical points Navigation, images, ads, information hierarchy…
6. Mobile first The small screen is the first limit.
7. Reference sketches Make basic sketches to help with the
hierarchy of the content.
8. Prototype fast The sooner you start coding your HTML,
the better.
9. Design in the browser Make design decisions as you
see the result on the browser.
10. All screens at once When developing, always think about
all screen sizes.
