Low Fidelity Prototypes

A low-fidelity prototype is a sketch or drawing of the proposed website that has more detail than a wireframe.

A low-fidelity prototype will include:

  • Headings and Paragraph Text
  • Text or Placeholder Text for Lists
  • Links to other pages
  • Sketched versions of images, videos and audio

The benefit of a low-fidelity prototype is that clients and developers can see what the page will look like, with content, before the page is developed. During this time, changes can be made which will save time and money in the long run.
