Some UX deliverables will be created directly within HTML and CSS, either hand-coded or using CSS frameworks. Previous projects used JavaScript, ActionScript, PHP and MySQL. Designing in HTML and CSS can quickly test UX, UI and web accessibility issues.
I remember hand-coding my first website in college. Now it’s almost easier to design in code for certain projects by building out an HTML/CSS prototype, usually after providing mockups for the homepage and a subpage. I inspect code in the browser, and will sometimes test CSS changes right in front of a client during a video chat. Sometimes showing a change can make a decision so much easier.
