2024年5月28日 · Prototyping is an iterative process of quickly building a simplified version of a product or system to test ideas, gather feedback, and refine the final solution. Prototyping is done before the development of the product to get clear solutions to improve the product. It ensures that the product meets the needs of the user.

Prototyping is the fourth stage in the Design Thinking process, following empathize, define, and ideate. It’s the crucial point where abstract ideas and user insights are transformed into tangible representations. While many associate prototyping with building a physical or digital model, fundamentally it's about experimentation and learning.
