A tool for sketching website designs that enables users to easily create layouts and customize their design ideas.
The Denim Project, a research initiative spearheaded by Professor James Landay, is dedicated to advancing tools for user interface design through informal interaction, particularly sketching. The project's flagship tool is Denim, which builds on the original Silk Project - a pioneering pen-based sketching software tailored for UI design.
Silk was developed as an electronic prototyping tool that combines the best of paper-based sketching with electronic design tools. It allows designers to easily create an interface design using an electronic pad and stylus, with the rough sketching process similar to pencil-and-paper drawing.
Silk retains the essential properties of pencil-and-paper drawing, such as speed and flexibility. Yet, unlike a traditional paper sketch, it's interactive, providing designers with the ability to annotate and modify their design using editing gestures. In a nutshell, the Silk Project provides efficient, intuitive and flexible UI design capabilities for creators looking for a convenient alternative to traditional paper sketching methods.
