  • Wireframing is a very common UX practice. But is the traditional approach overrated in some cases? In this video we explore an alternative to the traditional wireframing for landing page design.

    I actually have started using a wireframe component library, that way you can just drag and drop your elements in to create very very fast wireframes, without the visual distraction of other products branding. This way you can actually duplicate the components and start adjusting them in design to basically design your page from the wireframes without a bunch of re-work. I'll be dropping a tutorial on this soon ;)

    No doubt Tim you are one of the best UA-camrs currently, I am very happy to be learning at the same time you are making these videos!
    I believe that many who go to your channel are also beginners, a video tip would be to explain the whole process of designing a landing page to a fictitious customer, from the wireframe to the design in Figma and exporting to the frame, it could be a series, it would be interesting

    You say it makes no sense doing it with a non functional landing page.. but you are using a non functional landing page as example. The goal of a wireframe is to do the information design and the information is coming from the usergroup. You are taking interactive elements from competitors... don't think this makes a lot of sense.
    Edit: How is this even UX Design? There is not even a sentence about the process.

    Hey Tim! Been watching your awesome content for some time now and its been a boon since I am just figuring out responsive design. Might I suggest you create a video where you design a whole responsive website or app in figma? I am still a little doubtful on using auto layout and constraints on a larger project because i have been practising it on smaller components like cards or navbars.
    It'll be of great help!

    Great approach! Thank you, it`s very usefull.
    Armed! Now I have a whole series of questions.
    1. Why do you put it into that specific 1440px before capture it to Figma, if you resize it in Figma anyway? Why not just capture without Dev mode?
    2. What do for you capture every section, if you can capture whole webpage (can perform with Chrome extension, or I use Vivaldi and Capture whole page is already an option. And then you can duplicate it and cut into whatever section you need.
    3. Why do you even cut them into sections?
    4. What tool do you use to capture?
    5. What other sites can you recommend to get designs for inspiration?
    Thanks a lot, Tim! That`s very useful, as I said. I will definitely use it!

    I used to do actual wireframe but it instead makes me less productive and inefficient. I found that I work well with doing wireframe along with the high fidelity design at the same time
    Assuming I already have good understanding how the website should feel and aesthetics of the website, I would have pen and paper and brain dump random layouts. Do 10 second personal A/B testing and just start designing (or coding)

      well, personally I've only used it for landing page design, but thinking of it I think it could really be used for anything. the problem with dashboards is that they're very contextual and thus it might not be as useful as for the landing pages. still could be very useful though!!
