Axure RP Pro / Team is a software for creating prototypes and specifications for websites and applications. It offers drag and drop placement, resizing, and formatting of widgets.
Features
Axure RP supports prototyping Rich Internet Applications by mapping desired interface behaviors (such as displaying or hiding an element) in response to actions like mouse clicks or touch gestures.[1] Axure RP generates HTML web sites for preview and team collaboration as well as Microsoft Word documents as output for production documentation.
Axure RP can also connect to other tools and services such as Slack and Microsoft Teams to collaborate. Axure RP is also able to auto adjust and move smoothly from macOS to Windows. For security, prototypes can be sent with password protections to ensure full disclosure.
Users create custom controls by combining existing widgets and assigning actions in response to events such as OnClick, OnMouseOver and OnMouseOut or touch gestures like pinch and swipe. For example, interface panels can have a number of states, each being activated by clicking on an element such as a tab button, list-box item, or action button[2]
Commercialization
The current version of the software "Axure RP 9" is available as a subscription or perpetual license for commercial use. There are three versions: Pro, Team and Enterprise. The Pro product is available for free to students and teachers, and with discounts to educational institutions.[3] The Pro version adds documentation features, including layout control, output to Microsoft Word and Excel, and support for team projects.[4]
