Origami Studio is a new prototyping tool developed by Facebook. Origami was leveraged extensively while revamping ShareThis’ share button creation tool, and the share button UX/UI when embeded on a publishers content.
A common challenge for designers is accurately communicating complex interactions, animations, or other UX/UI intensions to product and engineering teams, as well as other stakeholders inside and outside of their organizations.
Building interactive prototypes clearly communicates UX/UI intention to product and engineering teams, resulting in higher quality products in less time. User testing with hi-fidelity interactive prototypes also provides a significantly better understanding of how people will actually interact with and respond to a product.
