mockup

A mockup is a detailed, visual prototype of a design, often used in web and product development. It showcases how the final product will look, including layout, colors, and features, but usually doesn’t have full functionality. Think of it as a realistic, static copy of the design that helps designers, clients, and developers visualize the end result before building or coding everything fully. It’s a useful tool for feedback and refining ideas, ensuring everyone agrees on the design direction early in the process.
