开发人员的模型工具:balsamiq sketchflow
我得到了第一个真正的项目,但不幸的是,这是一个不太知道自己想要什么的客户,这使得与他互动有点困难。
我认为为了帮助我自己,我需要在我们的对话中引入一些原型或草图工具。我现在进行了快速搜索,找到了 balsamiq 和 MS sketchflow,但我不断听到相互矛盾的意见,因此我需要公正的开发人员反馈来帮助我做出决定。我猜大多数之前做出这个决定的人都必须尝试这两种方法,并且可能有一些见解可以分享。
- 我看到 MS sketchflow 是交互式的,但 balsamiq 似乎不是。有人可以确认吗?
- 哪个更灵活,所以我不会被困在尝试绘制软件不允许我绘制的东西上。
- 哪个更容易使用?
- 哪个更全面?
- 还有什么其他选择?
I got my first real project, but unfortunately it's with a client who doesn't quite know what he wants, which makes it a bit difficult to interact with him.
I think to help and myself, I need to introduce some prototyping or sketching tool into our conversations. I did a quick search now and found balsamiq and MS sketchflow, but I keep hearing contradicting opinions, so I need unbiased developer feedback to help me make up my mind. I'm guessing that most people who've made that decision before had to try both and probably have some insights to share.
- I saw that MS sketchflow is interactive, but it seems balsamiq isn't. Can someone confirm?
- Which is more flexible so I'm not stuck trying to sketch something the software doesn't allow me to sketch.
- Which is easier to use?
- Which is more comprehensive?
- What other options are there?

这个答案不应被认为是公正的,因为我是 Microsoft SketchFlow 产品团队的开发人员。
SketchFlow 适用于交互式原型,并用于收集客户/利益相关者的迭代反馈。它背后有 Blend 的全部威力(这有好有坏,具体取决于您在做什么)。
这是一段 90 秒的精彩视频,对 SketchFlow 进行了一些解释:

它专注于 Blend 3,但 Blend 4 添加了许多新功能,包括支持发布原型和向 Sharepoint 站点提供反馈,以便与客户/利益相关者轻松协作。
我很乐意回答您可能提出的任何问题。
This answer should not be considered unbiased, as I work as a developer on the SketchFlow product team at Microsoft.
SketchFlow is intended for interactive prototypes, and for gathering iterative feedback from clients/stakeholders. It has the full power of Blend behind it (which is both good and bad depending on what you are doing).
Here is a great 90 sec video that explains a bit about SketchFlow:
http://channel9.msdn.com/posts/LauraFoy/Sketchflow-in-90-seconds/
It is focused on Blend 3, but Blend 4 added many new features, including support for publishing prototypes and feedback to a Sharepoint site for easy collaboration with clients/stakeholders.
I'm happy to answer any questions you might have.
ForeUI 是另一种选择,它可以创建可换肤和交互式原型(在网络浏览器中运行)。我目前在 ForeUI 研发团队工作,所以我的建议可能不被认为是公正的,但 ForeUI 确实值得尝试:-)
ForeUI is another option, it can create skinnable and interactive prototypes (run in web browser). I am currently working in the ForeUI R&D team, so my suggestion may not be considered unbiased, but ForeUI is really worth trying out :-)
您可以使用各种在线协作模型应用程序,但是,一个快速而肮脏的替代方案可能是通过 GoToMeeting、TeamViewer、Skype 或同等工具召开会议,然后打开图像编辑程序,例如 Photoshop、Fireworks、油漆等;然后只需使用其中之一 模板套件。这是链接 各种 iPhone 和 iPad 模板。
通过这种方式,您可以挑选与您正在做的事情最匹配的模板,或者足够抽象而不一定暗示细节的模板。模板套件通常有多种格式,允许您拖放必要的组件并创建模型。
祝你好运。
You can use the various online collaborative mock-up applications out there, however, a quick and dirty alternative may be to have a meeting, via GoToMeeting, TeamViewer, Skype or equivalent, then open up an image editing program such as Photoshop, Fireworks, Paint, etc; and then just use one of these stencil kits. Here's a link to various iPhone and iPad stencils.
In this way you can pick and choose the stencils that most closely match what you're doing, or are abstract enough to not necessarily imply detail. The stencil kits usually come in a plethora of formats, allowing you to drag and drop the necessary components and create your mock-up.
Good luck.
