Wireframing and Prototyping
Why fidelity is a deliberate choice rather than a finish line, the cost-of-change curve that justifies it, and how to reason about it live in a whiteboard interview
Covers the low/mid/high fidelity spectrum and what question each level is built to answer, why higher fidelity is a tradeoff rather than a quality ladder, the cost-of-change curve that justifies validating structure before polish, fidelity vs. interactivity as two separate axes, how to choose a fidelity/interactivity combination for a given situation, the prototyping tools landscape framed for interview judgment rather than tool trivia, the risk of designing directly in code or a high-fidelity tool, and how to run the classic whiteboard sketching exercise.
