• Rough.js: Create graphics with a hand-drawn, sketchy, appearance

  Me of https://balsamiq.com/wireframes/ - guy used to do a lot of startup blogs about it. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Best package for doing UI/UX

  If you want to lay it out, use something like Balsamiq first. Just wireframe it. You’ll be surprised how much better your last version is than your first version. Once you’re done, you can try to make a nice version in Figma. And then do the hard part and do the actual programming. Source: about 1 year ago

• Show HN: TinyUX – Grid based low-fi wireframing on your mobile phone

  > I still don't get this. Isn't it just using a different style of outline around buttons? What is lo-fi about it? Wouldn't lo-fi be something that was much lower memory and much faster to draw, like solid color boxes? Low-fidelity is jargon. It's a word used in the UX Design community for high level, low detail design artifacts. Perhaps you are thinking of low-fi audio and try to match that to wire-frames.... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Is there an “uncanny valley” effect with startup MVPs

  ...to the point that (great) UX and wireframing tools like Balsamiq look crappy _on purpose_: https://balsamiq.com/wireframes/ Which all kinda makes sense, with the intuitive reasoning being: If you had time and money to sink into a pixel-perfect design, you're already one step beyond product-market fit, so creating a too good impression might not work in your favor. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Best way to make mock ups for beginners

  Sounds like Photoshop is the wrong tool. For the wireframe stage, I'd go for something simple like Balsamiq. Otherwise, Adobe offers AdobeXD specifically for such mockups. I have quite a few friends who specialize in UX, and almost all of them live by Figma. Good luck! Source: almost 2 years ago

UserTesting.com mentions (101)

• Low-cost, one-off unmoderated usability testing platforms

  Lookback, Usability Hub (now called Lyssna) and Validately but have been spoiled by former employers who had the budget for usertesting.com so I'm pretty out of the loop on low-budget options. TIA! Source: 5 months ago

• Interview recruiting?

  I need to recruit 5-6 parents/grandparents for a study and I'm having trouble finding a company I can use (aside from usertesting.com since they tailor to large companies and I'm doing freelance work). Every company I've come across offers recruitment for surveys, but not interviews. Source: 6 months ago

• iOS User Testing App Won't Open

  Anyone else having problems with the iOS UserTesting App? Mine just opens and shows the logo, and stays there. I can see multiple tests available on usertesting.com, but can't open the app. I have a iPhone 13, updated to 17.1. Source: 6 months ago
