This ebook explains how to create mockups that developers won't hate – and it's free to download today!
The new ebook Building UI Mockups Developers Don’t Hate explains how to close the gap between design and development. The two disciplines have often been thought of as separate entities occurring one after another, but everyone’s job is easier when both sides are aware of the nuances that can turn into disasters.
As part of their free online library, the wireframing and prototyping app UXPin writes about how UX and UI designers can work side-by-side with developers to create mockups and other forms of functional design.

Mockup guidelines and best practices
