> Enterface is an app for creating polished, production ready, pixel-perfect, multi-page, multi-state mockups of user interfaces. I like what you've done. But I wonder if mockups really need to be polished, production ready, pixel-perfect etc.

I would worry about this too. It seems like you could get bogged down using a tool like this, spending days creating pixel perfect mockups, just to throw out your work later. That might be why Balsamiq is such a popular tool; the mockups look like ass, but they let you iterate quickly without caring about the tiny details.

"Lightbulb image by Svengraph. No affiliation with me or this project." Surprising at least, why are you using branding that doesn't belong to you? Is this a concept? A series of interesting mockups of a mockup app, or are these shots of a working prototype? I get out of this presentation with more questions than answers about this app, and no way to find out more, or be notified.

I guess the title of this HN post does mention that it's a concept, so that part is in fact clear here. Not on the site.

Hey guys, thanks for all the feedback. Right now Enterface is just a concept, hence no call to action. I would love to have it developed, if only for my own use! I'll need my own icon, too...

Come on man. It's 2012. Get this onto Kickstarter, make the call to action the same as if it were already built. Then go build it.

The Enterface interface is good. I would definitely pay to use this. Go forth and make this puppy real.

Two big things I would love from a tool that intends to solve this problem well: - Do it on the web, making it free of platform ties. - Make collaboration (versioning, sharing, maybe discussion) much easier.

There's too much focus on web-based software. This type of product is ideal native, even with all the collaboration features.
