What you’ll learn

Axure is the MOST POWERFUL UX tool for prototyping in the market. With Axure, you can essentially code an entire app without writing a line of code. That is because Axure Prototypes are built with HTML, CSS, and Javascript. In a single click, your prototype will be a live website. When you build in the same language as developers, you can fully prototype your UX design ideas.

Why Axure? There are TONS of reasons why!

  • You’ll be qualified for more senior UX jobs that require Axure. This tool is for serious designers!

  • It dramatically reduces the number of screens you need to create. No more create a ton of artboards to show an interaction. Therefore, Axure speeds up the production of an app.

  • Developer handoff is much easier because Axure prototypes are built in HTML/CSS/Javascript. Send your developer ready-made HTML files in just one click!

  • Break free from the happy path and create more realistic prototypes for better user tests. Restrictions in Invision only allows users to only go down the happy path - but that doesn’t provide very useful usability test data.

  • Real, functioning UI elements, like search fields, radio buttons, checkboxes, and dropdowns.

  • Build from a huge library of open-sourced pre-made UI elements, including iOS and Android.

  • Connect your front-end to an mini backend database by inserting a spreadsheet.

Carlos Arevalo, an Ironhack Miami alum, who got hired at Blockchain startup 8base within 1 month after graduating, took my Axure course and loved it! He’s already doing all his prototypes in Axure at his new job. Here’s his article on why Axure is now his favorite prototyping tool..
