Balsamiq

Life's too short for bad software!

Balsamiq Wireframes is a rapid low-fidelity UI wireframing tool that reproduces the experience of sketching on a notepad or whiteboard, but using a computer.

It really forces you to focus on structure and content, avoiding lengthy discussions about colors and details that should come later in the process.

Wireframes is FAST: you will generate more ideas, so you can throw out the bad ones and discover the best solutions.

Balsamiq is the first tool out of your UX toolbox: faster than the sketchbook, and almost as fun to use. It forces you to focus on IA — the rest can come later.

Working on a side project, or have to act designer for a bit? Start with Balsamiq! It's MUCH faster than doing it directly in code, trust us.
Balsamiq is the perfect first UX tool for students or anyone interested in getting into UX. It's by far the most approachable, and takes you 80% there to pro.
