Prototypes Made Easy – and Fast, and Inexpensive

In this course for beginners, you will learn the basics of developing interactive prototypes, from site maps and flow diagrams to understanding how the development process works and the wireframe template library.

Rapid interactive prototyping is becoming a key step in the development of digital projects (sites, apps and software).

In the bad old days, you paid thousands to get wireframes, and then made a clickable map, and then spec-ed the type, and then passed off your work (weeks later) to the coder. Balsmiq or Mockingbird? Or Omnigraffle? Or paper prototypes?

Welcome to the new world: Axure is a rapid prototyping tool. You can create dynamic prototype that includes site map, wireframes and functional specifications all at once. Fast, inexpensive and extremely flexible, Axure lets you go from concept to code-able wireframes in days, not weeks.

It is a great way to develop a dynamic simulation to communicate a digital concept to stakeholders and developers.

The two 2-hour sessions include a combination of lecture and hands-on practical exercises, Plan to come with your laptop and download Axure (6.5) trial version: http://www.axure.com/download
