"If you're a new startup looking for investment, or a team at a large company seeking the green light for a new product, nothing convinces like real running code. But how do you solve the chicken-and-egg problem of filling your early prototype with real data? We'll discuss how to use open datasets and public web APIs as a proxy for the final product while you're still in the development stage."--Resource description page.

"This video training is all about the development of low-fidelity prototypes for smart apps and websites. Prototypes designed in Balsamiq are nonfunctioning models that give you the edge on the creation process, because they can be assembled in a single day. Prototypes give you a direction on the construction of the project and can save you time and money. This course teaches you the principles of prototyping, shows you around the Balsamiq interface, and teaches you how to assemble and disseminate basic prototypes."--Resource description page

In this course, you'll get an overview of everything from simple outputs (LEDs, buzzers) to the more complex (motors, speakers, and graphical displays). You'll also learn how to wire them up and program them."--Resource description page.

"Artists, product designers, and inventors who understand the basics of Arduino prototyping can take their skills to the next level in this overview of how to work with input sensors: those multitude of devices that can monitor the physical world. You'll start with the simple (temperature sensors, light sensors) and then move up to the complex (distance, accelerometer, object recognition), learning how each sensor functions, how to wire them up, and how to program them."--Resource description page.

"Design pro Andy Anderson is your guide in this how-to course covering the basics of working with the Figma prototyping design tool. He begins with an explanation of Figma's online collaborative prototyping environment (designers work from anywhere in the world, using any connected computer), before moving on to the build-out of an actual working prototype. You'll learn how to add content in the form of text, images, and components; then look at how you export a project, and how you share a project. All that while you explore some time-saving tips and tricks, and much more, and it begins with the very first lesson."--Resource description page.

"Today's world is all about smart phone and computers, but creating the apps and websites that run on these devices can take a year or more to complete. Prototypes are typically non-functioning models of apps and websites that give developers and designers the edge on this lengthy creation process. Why? Because prototypes can be assembled in as little as a single day, saving them time and money. This course teaches you how to use Origami, a prototyping tool created by designers at Facebook that makes it easy to create prototypes for smart apps and websites. You'll explore Origami's interface, learn the principles of prototyping, and gain experience assembling and disseminating a basic prototype."--Resource description page
