EP 59 - UX/UI and Wireframing Kickoff with Matt & Moshe

Welcome to the UX/UI and Wireframing kickoff episode. Matt and Moshe met to discuss what UX/UI design and Wireframing systems are all about.Although they debated whether to have a dedicated series for each of them, one for UX/UI design systems such as Figma or Invision, and one for Wireframing systems like Balsamiq, they decided on merging these into one series. Reason is that Product Managers don’t usually do a lot of the UX/UI design, and are more involved in the wireframing process. Some systems are dedicated to wireframing, while others are more geared to the UX/UI design, and still allow the Product Managers to participate. While other systems, such as Miro, is more of a broad whiteboard collaboration platform, which lends itself to wireframing.In this episode, Matt and Moshe discuss some of they expectations from the series and what they would like to learn, such as:* User friendliness of the various platforms* The collaboration aspects* Prototyping* And more! The products we will discuss include:* Figma* Lucidchart* Miro* Balsamiq* and moreConnect with Matt and Moshe on LinkedIn:*Matt - www.linkedin.com/in/mattgreenanalytics*Moshe - www.linkedin.com/in/mikanovsky *Note: any views mentioned in the podcast are the sole views of our hosts and guests, and do not represent the products mentioned in any way.Please leave us a review and feedback ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
