AI Dev Workflow: High-Fi Prototypes Over Product Docs
dotey · x · 2026-07-18
The author shares practical tips for using high-fidelity interactive prototypes to replace traditional product docs in AI-assisted development.
- Prototypes over Docs: High-fi prototypes support interaction and mock data, making them more intuitive than text, achieving over 90% fidelity when handed off to AI.
- Workflow Breakdown: Using a video watermarking feature as an example, they first have Claude generate a prototype, refine it, and then let AI generate the final code.
- Advantages: Eliminates the need to maintain complex design docs, allows rapid prototype tweaks, and operates independently of underlying code logic.
