The document discusses the importance of prototyping for successful projects. It defines prototyping as incomplete versions of software that implement a small subset of features to test ideas. There are three levels of prototyping discussed - low, medium, and high fidelity. Low fidelity prototypes are quickest to develop but harder to test users. Medium fidelity adds more realistic experience but takes longer. High fidelity is closest to the final product. The keys to successful prototyping are short development time, using throwaway code when possible, and faking elements when needed to test ideas quickly.

- 4. What is Prototyping …incomplete versions of the software program being developed. A prototype typically implements only a small subset of the features of the eventual program, and the implementation may be completely different from that of the eventual product.

Editor's Notes
- “We don’t have the time to prototype?”“We can’t afford to prototype. We don’t have the budget.”I’ll cover more of this when I talk about prototyping’s role in testing, but you can uncover potential mistakes, gaps in the application flow, or points of uncertainty.Disneyland and the new Cars Ride1st builder testOvercoming “designer perfection” – Item labels all just fit, elements don’t scroll.
