SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Prototyping provides a fast, throwaway approach to testing design questions about state models and UI options, helping teams decide directions before committing to code.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Build tiny logic prototypes to explore state machines and data shapes.
  • Generate multiple UI variants on a single route to compare layouts and flows.
  • Keep prototypes lightweight with in-memory state and a simple task runner for rapid iteration.

Quick Start

Start a throwaway prototype from your repo and run the built-in runner to exercise the chosen branch.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build throwaway prototypes to validate state machine logic?

To build throwaway prototypes for validating state machines, create lightweight logic paths with in-memory state and a minimal task runner to exercise the chosen branch without committing to production code.

What is the best way to compare UI variants on a single route?

The best way to compare UI variants on a single route is to generate multiple layout and flow options within a throwaway prototype setup, allowing rapid visual comparison before finalizing the design direction.

How do I set up a rapid feedback workflow for testing UI design options?

Set up a rapid feedback workflow by creating a lightweight, throwaway prototype environment using in-memory state and a simple task runner to quickly iterate through different UI design branches.

When should I use throwaway prototypes instead of production code?

Use throwaway prototypes when you need to validate design questions about state models and UI approaches rapidly, helping teams decide directions before committing resources to actual production code.

Do I need external dependencies to run a prototype for state models?

No external dependencies are required to run a prototype for state models; the setup relies on a built-in minimal task runner and clear branching between logic and UI paths using in-memory state.
