Wireframe annotations bridge the gap between visual designs and development requirements, ensuring everyone understands layout intentions and functionality. AI can generate comprehensive annotations that capture both structure and behavior.

Writing effective annotations:

  • Describe component purposes and user actions clearly
  • Explain what happens during each interaction
  • Include notes about different states (default, hover, error)
  • Specify responsive behavior across screen sizes

Start by providing AI with context about the screen's purpose and where it fits in the user flow. For example: "This is a checkout page with a form on the left and order summary on the right. Users must complete all fields before proceeding."

AI understands common UI patterns and can annotate complex layouts systematically. It can explain spatial relationships between elements, define interaction behaviors, and note how content adapts to different states. Request annotations that cover visual hierarchy, interactive elements, validation rules, and edge cases.

Include notes about error handling, loading states, and empty states to prevent implementation gaps.

Remember to review annotations for technical accuracy and completeness.
