Whimsical - Flowcharts and Wireframes (Skillshare)

Offered by Skillshare,
Whimsical - Flowcharts and Wireframes (Skillshare)

Whimsical is a relatively new online collaboration tool that allows you to build quick flowcharts and wireframes. Think of it as similar to Google docs, in that several users can be on the same screen all working together. Pretty cool! There are no prerequisites for the class and Whimsical has a free tier for up to four boards. Along the way, l have a couple of challenges for you to work on. So, join me in learning to create flowcharts and wireframes with Whimsical.

There are two projects in the class. The first is to design a VUI or Visual User Interface diagram using the flowchart tools. This could be a "skill" in Alexa for example or maybe an app with voice control. I'll give a short example where I'm designing for the Alexa platform.
The second project is using the wireframing tools to build a copy of your favorite website landing page or a whole new concept. I'll be showing you a quick and rough version of Twitter as a wireframe, but you can choose anything.
