Prototype first: clarify features before development

A working prototype gives a team a shared way to discuss requirements.

Choose one core journey

Start with the journey that most needs validation: an enquiry form, booking flow or management screen. The whole system need not be built first.

Label simulated behaviour

Explain which content is illustrative and which controls connect to real data. A visual prototype should not be mistaken for a production system.

Turn feedback into decisions

Record confirmed requirements and open questions, then agree priorities and the next development scope.

What can you prepare before starting?

1. The project goal, intended users and current problem.
2. The existing website, content assets and an initial list of essential features.
3. Who approves content and functionality, plus timing and budget questions to discuss.

Use these WebCraftHK planning notes as a starting point for your project discussion. Bring your goals, content and feature priorities so we can explore a practical next step together.
