Overview of this book

User experience (UX) design provides techniques to analyze the real needs of your users and respond to them with products that are delightful to use. This requires you to think differently compared to traditional development processes, but also to act differently. In this book, you will be introduced to a pragmatic approach to exploring and creating mobile app solutions, reducing risks and saving time during their construction. This book will show you a working process to quickly iterate product ideas with low and high fidelity prototypes, based on professional tools from different software brands. You will be able to quickly test your ideas early in the process with the most adequate prototyping approach. You will understand the pros and cons of each approach, when you should use each of them, and what you can learn in each step of the testing process. You will also explore basic testing approaches and some more advanced techniques to connect and learn from your users. Each chapter will focus on one of the general steps needed to design a successful product according to the organization goals and the user needs. To achieve this, the book will provide detailed hands-on pragmatic techniques to design innovative and easy to use products. You will learn how to test your ideas in the early steps of the design process, picking up the best ideas that truly work with your users, rethinking those that need further refinement, and discarding those that don’t work properly in tests made with real users. By the end of the book, you will learn how to start exploring and testing your design ideas, regardless the size of the design budget.

Creating prototypes with Sketch and Framer Studio

In this section, we will show some examples using designs created with Sketch and import them with Framer Studio. Although we can create the layers of our prototypes in code, using design software such as Photoshop or Sketch makes the process much more fluid. You can import the result in Framer as layers that we will use to create the prototype by adding interactivity to them.

In this section, we will include several prototypes and, although each one of them will be independent of the others, it is advisable to read them in the order presented, since some basic concepts will be explained in the first prototype in which they appear, and they will be treated with less detail in the subsequent prototypes.
