Hi Tom,

Thanks for your comment. Indeed I can imagine that Hobo speeds up your development and i fully understand that hobo is not only a prototyping tool and that it can be used in production (by the way I’m very curious to see the commercial websites you are referring to when they will be ready and have some feedback about your “live” experience with Hobo). But we had a discussion about the fact that most of the time the customers can not imagine that even if a work seems finished, it’s not always the case and that there is a “risk of misunderstanding” that has to be addressed by the professional developers.

From the Google translation I think you made the point about prototypes only being 80% of the work of building the real application, and how customers can get the wrong idea.<br /> <br /> I just thought I'd mention that Hobo is not just a prototyping tool. It can be used for that, but I'm also using it with several 'real' web applications for paying customers. Hobo is giving me a dramatic speed-up in building the finished product.<br /> <br /> Thanks for your post on Hobo!</p> Hi - sorry to post in English.

Thanks for your post on Hobo!

Notion qui est toujours difficile à faire passer auprès d'un client. Puisque la méthodologie de prototypage s'améliore d'un coté (avec un plugin comme celui-ci), il n'y aurait aucune raison pour ne pas trouver un argumentaire qui soit intelligible par un client. <br /> <br /> Une méthodologie plus propre mettra le client en confiance ... et donc rendra plus crédible une argumentation sur le temps nécéssaire pour assurer un développement professionnel.<br /> </p> :) Comme tu le dis pour les développeurs pro, 80 à 90% du travail est invisible à l’écran.

Une méthodologie plus propre mettra le client en confiance … et donc rendra plus crédible une argumentation sur le temps nécéssaire pour assurer un développement professionnel.
