Intro to UX for Developers
summary
Every couple of weeks teams put fully functional A/B tablet web prototypes in front of users to observe behavior and refine features, showing early prototyping saves time and money. A Wii U gamepad mock built in a day tests play mechanics; Jeff Hawkins carries a block of wood before Palm Pilot development to test form factor; a botched electronic alumni sign‑in proves context can kill a UX and forces a return to pen and paper. Use paper prototyping, the Wizard of Oz technique and tools like Balsamiq, Arduino, cardboard to iterate fast and test concrete goals.
