Prototyping is an essential part of design. At some point during the process of creating and releasing a great product, building a prototype is inevitable. Prototyping allows you to validate your design choices with developers, project stakeholders and, most importantly, target users. A good prototype is simply the best way to share, communicate and get quick feedback on your design ideas.
In the world of mobile devices, the evaluation of native applications, mobile websites and web apps is crucial. While desktop PCs have been around for about 40 years and the World Wide Web is celebrating its 20 year anniversary, mobile devices are relatively new. The history of web has seen a number of design standards emerge. Despite the constant evolution of the platform, best practices can help anticipate user behaviour on any desktop web application. Since the same can’t be said about touch phones and tablets, validating design choices as soon as possible becomes crucial. For mobile, fewer best practices exist and user behaviour is hard to predict.
