My work featured on wireframes magazine

Jakub has just posted an item over at wireframes magazine about some html wireframes I developed using polypage.

Say for example you want to show your wireframes to your client in the “logged out” and “first time visit” states, Polypage allows you to click through all your wireframes to demonstrate such a case. Later on when you decide to demonstrate the “logged in” state, all you do is toggle it in the top menu and continue your presentation.

Traditionally, developing a prototype like this would have been quite time intensive; tools like polypage and jquery make this kind of work quick and easy. Having a working prototype makes it very easy to show stakeholders and developers what you’re thinking.

Thanks to clearleft for developing it. You may have more fun exploring their example of this technique: mine is for a fairly unexciting government project!

    Congrats on the article, dude.

    Isn’t Polypage a New Bamboo thing?

    Yep, sorry, I think they developed it together, see this article and the polypage page.

    I also need to thank Emma at Basement59 who I developed the paper prototypes with (I’m going to put photos of those on flickr soon!).

    Hey Ben. Andy Kent ex-New Bamboo deserves the credit for putting the original library together. Clearleft, especially Natbat, have all contributed to the project since. Good to see other people using it. See you soon.
