SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Throwaway prototypes provide a fast, low-cost way to answer design and architecture questions by isolating the core logic or UI decisions in a throwaway code path.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Quick, disposable prototypes that explore state models and UI flows without touching production code.
  • One-command runnable workflows that start the prototype from the host project, with no persistence by default.
  • Clear guidance on when to fold validated decisions back into the real codebase or delete the prototype.

Quick Start

Run the prototype using your project’s usual task runner to start the interactive session.

FAQPage Schema
How do I quickly prototype UI flows without touching production code?

Throwaway prototypes provide a fast, low-cost way to answer design and architecture questions by isolating core logic or UI decisions in a disposable code path that requires no persistence.

How do I test design logic and state models rapidly during early development?

You can test design logic rapidly using disposable prototypes that isolate state models and UI layouts. These prototypes run from your host project with no persistence, providing immediate feedback on interaction flows.

Can I run disposable design prototypes directly from my existing project?

Yes, you can run disposable prototypes directly from your existing project using its standard task runner. The prototypes start interactively with no persistence by default, keeping experimental UI scaffolds isolated.

When should I fold a validated prototype's decisions into my real codebase?

You should fold validated decisions into your real codebase once the prototype successfully answers your design or architecture questions. If the prototype fails to validate, you can simply delete it without affecting production.

Do I need to set up database persistence to test UI layouts with rapid prototypes?

No, you do not need database persistence to test UI layouts with rapid prototypes. They operate with no persistence by default, keeping the throwaway code isolated until you decide to fold it into production.
