Explanation
A heuristic evaluation is a method of inspecting the usability of an interface by comparing it to a set of general principles or heuristics. It can help identify potential problems and areas for improvement in the design. A heuristic evaluation is usually done before creating any prototypes, as it can provide insights and guidance for the design process. A low-fidelity prototype is a rough sketch or mockup of an interface that can be used to test and validate design ideas with users. It is usually created after conducting some research and analysis of the user needs and goals. A design template is a pre-made layout or structure that can be used to create an interface. It can help save time and ensure consistency in the design, but it may not suit the specific needs and preferences of the users or the business. A design template is usually applied after defining the content and functionality of the interface. References:
