What is Wireframing and Prototyping in Website Development?
The process of developing a website wireframe and prototyping are crucial developments in crafting a highly functional and well-designed e-commerce site. Wireframing is the process of developing a flat, basic outline of a webpage or application. Prototyping is an experimental process where design teams take creative ideas and turn them into tangible forms, from paper to digital form.
Wireframing services do not need to be developed for every page; our developers will decide which web pages need this process.

Wireframe Creation
Creating a wireframe is the first step in developing new web applications or web pages. There are two avenues to choose from when starting the process. Low-Fidelity is just a simple layout needed for visual purposes; a low-fidelity wireframe is a great direction to go. This type of wireframe provides a skeletal framework, simple visual representation of ideas for various teams in an agency. High-Fidelity is an in-depth, intricate layout. This type includes more elements that will be highlighted in the final product.
Prototype Development
After a wireframe has been completed and approved by the client, a prototype can be developed. Whether paper or digital, this is a key step in application development. A paper prototype is often a hand-drawn sketch used to simulate the function of a webpage or app. The next step beyond a paper prototype is a digital prototype. This is a demo of a new product or application that allows the developer to test the design and ideas that are to be featured in the final product.

FAQs
A wireframe serves as the skeleton for a webpage or application. It gives writers an outline to follow when writing copy for a page and gives a visual representation of the team’s plan.
A wireframe mockup is a simple overview of a design to show where each piece of content will be located. However, a prototype is a detailed layout of the webpage or application, including color and all features present in the finished product.
Wireframing falls under the User Experience category rather than User Interface. It is classified as such because the purpose of the wireframe is to ensure the future user has a pleasant experience using the final site or application.
The 2 main types of wireframing are low-fidelity and high-fidelity. A low-fidelity wireframe is a quick sketch that gives designers, developers, and content writers a tangible idea of what is being created. Conversely, a high-fidelity wireframe is a much more detailed creation with specific colors and features that will be highlighted in the finished product.
