What is Rapid Prototyping?
The practice of quickly building a simplified, testable version of a product, feature, or idea to validate assumptions and gather feedback before committing to full development.
My perspective
In practice
Speed is the point: the goal is to learn fast, not to build perfectly. A prototype that answers a key question in two days is worth more than a polished solution that answers the wrong question in two months. Especially powerful when combined with generative AI tools.
