Design Documents

Design documentation is a collection of documents and resources that covers all aspects of your product design. Popular design documents include UI Mock-ups, UML Diagrams, CAD Models, Schematics, Sketches, and Product Renderings.

For this deliverable, you are required to create one draft design of your website landing page and one design document, the second of which must be included in your sales pitch. You may include additional design documents for evaluation if desired.

Upload everything for this phase as one document in the Google Drive when finished
