You may be wondering what you can get from an article like this. My goal is to give an in-depth look at the basics of wireframing\u00a0from a more practical perspective.<\/em><\/p>\n

In this article we\u2019re going to answer the following basic questions:<\/p>\n

– Who uses it?<\/em><\/p>\n

– Why should you consider using them?<\/em><\/p>\n

– How can you create awesome wireframes with or without software?<\/em><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s begin<\/strong><\/h4>\n

W<\/span>hen it comes to wireframing, the easiest way to describe it is as the cornerstone of product design and development<\/a>. Regardless of the project itself, you will work with this tool in the early stage of website\/mobile application building. The goal here is that everyone who\u2019s involved in the project has to be on the same side.\u00a0This means not only designers product managers and engineers but everyone. If we look at a company that prefers\u00a0agile development<\/a>, we can see that wireframes are implemented in the early stage of product design and development phase. Yes, even a simple paper-based sketch can be considered as a wireframe, but we\u2019ll discuss this in-depth as the article continues.<\/p>\n

Sketch, Wireframe, Mockup<\/h4>\n

Okay, hold on. Aren\u2019t mockups the same as wireframes?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

T<\/span>he wireframe is all about making mockups work. As it\u2019s shown on the picture above, its fidelity ranges between low\u00a0and middle<\/a>. In the case of an app or a website, it can be navigation, the layout of buttons, boxes and other elements while a mockup is as\u00a0close as possible to the end result<\/a>. It sometimes changes the\u00a0details you would ignore otherwise, like repositioning CTA-s can make a huge difference in conversions. Understanding how users really interact<\/strong><\/a> with your website can help you a lot to find the right place for your CTA.<\/p>\n
