When a picture is more eloquent than 1024 words - prototyping with MockingBird

image For writing TK, I wondered about finding a simple and convenient tool for creating prototypes of web pages. I wanted something free and online, some alternative to Axure. This service was found, and I bring it to your attention. So, meet www.gomockingbird.com - a service that allows you to create very beautiful prototypes easily and conveniently.
In addition to the presentation of the service itself, this post also wanted to draw public attention to the useful practice of prototyping.

MockingBird is based on Cappuccino and looks quite like a desktop application with the ability to export rendered prototypes to PNG and PDF.

Opportunities


Consider the features described on the official website:

Rapid prototyping due to the presence of a large number of visual page elements in the “palette” and the use of drag & drop:
