What is wireframing?

Wireframing is a crucial step in the design process that creates a blueprint for your digital product. It focuses on layout and functionality without the distraction of visual design.

Low-fidelity wireframes use simple shapes and placeholder text to map out page structure. They’re quick to create and easy to iterate on.

Mid-fidelity wireframes add more detail: actual content, proper sizing, and navigation patterns. They help stakeholders understand the user experience.

Tools like Figma, Sketch, and Balsamiq make wireframing accessible to both designers and non-designers alike.
