Systems and methods for defining a simulated interactive web page

A method, comprising:

• providing by a computer system a plurality of primitives for use in developing an interactive representation model of a proposed application;
• providing, by the computer system, a first user interface for display via which a user can select a primitive from the plurality of primitives, drag the selected primitive to a desired location in an interactive representation model design area, and drop the primitive at the desired location in the interactive representation model design area;
• in response to the user's selection and dragging of a first primitive to a first location in the interactive representation model design area, causing, by the computer system, the first primitive to appear at the first location;
• providing, by the computer system, a second user interface for display via which the user can edit properties associated with a primitive selected by the user from the interactive representation model design area;
• in response to the user's editing of a first property associated with the first primitive, associating, by the computer system, the edited first property with the first primitive;
• enabling, by the computer system, members of a team to access and modify the interactive representation model via respective user interfaces;
• enabling, by the computer system, members of the team to conduct an online discussion regarding the interactive representation model, wherein the online discussion is recorded as a threaded discussion;
• and
• reporting status, by the computer system, for a plurality of team tasks related to development of the interactive representation model of the proposed application.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon that, if executed by the at least one computing device, cause the at least one computing device to perform operations comprising:

• providing a plurality of primitives for use in developing an interactive representation model of a proposed application;
• providing a first user interface for display via which a user can select a primitive from the plurality of primitives, drag the selected primitive to a desired location in an interactive representation model design area, and drop the primitive at the desired location in the interactive representation model design area;
• in response to the user's selection and dragging of a first primitive to a first location in the interactive representation model design area, causing the first primitive to appear at the first location;
• providing a second user interface for display via which the user can edit properties associated with a primitive selected by the user from the interactive representation model design area;
• in response to the user's editing of a first property associated with the first primitive, associating the edited first property with the first primitive;
• enabling members of a team to access and modify the interactive representation model via respective user interfaces;
• enabling members of the team to conduct an online discussion regarding the interactive representation model, wherein the online discussion is recorded as a threaded discussion;
• and
• storing and reporting status for a plurality of team tasks related to development of the interactive representation model of the proposed application.
