Wireframing
A skeletal blueprint of a webpage or app, outlining structure and layout without the frills.
What is it?
Wireframing is a two-dimensional skeletal outline of a webpage or app, providing a clear overview of the page structure, layout, information architecture, user flow, functionality, and intended behaviors.
When to use it?
Use wireframes during the exploratory phase of development to test the scope of the product, collaborate on ideas, and identify business requirements before diving into detailed design.
Why use it?
Wireframes allow all stakeholders to get on the same page before an app or webpage is built out with code, saving time and money by reducing the need for multiple design phases.
How to use it?
Create a simplified black-and-white version of the final product, focusing on layout and functionality. This serves as a bridge between developers, designers, project managers, and clients, ensuring everyone aligns on the overall structure and functionality.
How not to use it?
Avoid adding colors, images, or detailed graphics; wireframes should remain minimalistic to focus on structure and functionality. Don't skip wireframing, as it ensures all stakeholders are aligned before development begins.
