Phase 3: Mockup Development

Create trendy UI without a designer + Consider Next.js componentization

Purpose

Quickly validate ideas before actual implementation. Even without a designer, research UI/UX trends to create high-quality prototypes, designed for easy conversion to Next.js components later.

What to Do in This Phase

1. Screen Mockups: Implement UI with HTML/CSS
2. Interactions: Implement behavior with basic JavaScript
3. Data Simulation: Simulate API responses with JSON files
4. Feature Validation: Test user flows

PDCA Application

• Plan: What screens/features to mock up
• Design: Screen structure, interaction design
• Do: Implement HTML/CSS/JS
• Check: Verify feature behavior
• Act: Apply feedback and proceed to Phase 4

Level-wise Application

Level	Application Method
Starter	This stage may be the final deliverable
Dynamic	For validation before next stages
Enterprise	For quick PoC

Core Principles

"Working prototype over perfect code"

- Pure HTML/CSS/JS without frameworks
- JSON files instead of APIs for data simulation
- Fast feedback loops
- Structure considering Next.js componentization

Design for Next.js Componentization

Mockup → Component Transition Strategy

Considering component separation from the mockup stage makes Next.js transition easier.

1. Design HTML Structure in Component Units

<!-- ❌ Bad: Monolithic HTML -->
<div class="page">
  <header>...</header>
  <main>
    <div class="hero">...</div>
    <div class="features">...</div>
  </main>
  <footer>...</footer>
</div>

<!-- ✅ Good: Separated by component units -->
<!-- components/Header.html -->
<header data-component="Header">
  <nav data-component="Navigation">...</nav>
</header>

<!-- components/Hero.html -->
<section data-component="Hero">
  <h1 data-slot="title">...</h1>
  <p data-slot="description">...</p>
  <button data-component="Button" data-variant="primary">...</button>
</section>

2. Separate CSS by Component

mockup/
├── styles/
│   ├── base/
│   │   ├── reset.css
│   │   └── variables.css      # CSS variables (design tokens)
│   ├── components/
│   │   ├── button.css
│   │   ├── card.css
│   │   ├── header.css
│   │   └── hero.css
│   └── pages/
│       └── home.css

3. Create Component Mapping Document

## Component Mapping (mockup → Next.js)

| Mockup File | Next.js Component | Props |
|-------------|------------------|-------|
| `components/button.html` | `components/ui/Button.tsx` | variant, size, disabled |
| `components/card.html` | `components/ui/Card.tsx` | title, description, image |
| `components/header.html` | `components/layout/Header.tsx` | user, navigation |

4. Design Data Structure as Props

// mockup/data/hero.json
{
  "title": "Innovative Service",
  "description": "We provide better experiences",
  "cta": {
    "label": "Get Started",
    "href": "/signup"
  },
  "image": "/hero-image.png"
}

// → When transitioning to Next.js
// components/Hero.tsx
interface HeroProps {
  title: string;
  description: string;
  cta: {
    label: string;
    href: string;
  };
  image: string;
}

Next.js Transition Example

Mockup (HTML):

<!-- mockup/components/feature-card.html -->
<div class="feature-card" data-component="FeatureCard">
  <div class="feature-card__icon">🚀</div>
  <h3 class="feature-card__title">Fast Speed</h3>
  <p class="feature-card__description">We provide optimized performance.</p>
</div>

Next.js Component:

// components/FeatureCard.tsx
interface FeatureCardProps {
  icon: string;
  title: string;
  description: string;
}

export function FeatureCard({ icon, title, description }: FeatureCardProps) {
  return (
    <div className="feature-card">
      <div className="feature-card__icon">{icon}</div>
      <h3 className="feature-card__title">{title}</h3>
      <p className="feature-card__description">{description}</p>
    </div>
  );
}

---

JSON Data Simulation Example

// scripts/app.js
async function loadProducts() {
  const response = await fetch('./data/products.json');
  const products = await response.json();
  renderProducts(products);
}

JSON Structure → Use as API Schema

// mockup/data/products.json
// This structure becomes the basis for Phase 4 API design
{
  "data": [
    {
      "id": 1,
      "name": "Product Name",
      "price": 10000,
      "image": "/products/1.jpg"
    }
  ],
  "pagination": {
    "page": 1,
    "limit": 10,
    "total": 50
  }
}
