How to Design a Mockup of Windows 10 User Interface

The launch of Windows 10 with its the tile-based Modern UI design brings a lot of new opportunities for both designers and developers to build new apps. To design an effective user interface, graphic designers will create visual Graphic User Interface (GUI) prototypes, that focus on maximizing the user experience — searching for the most functional layout that attends to core user needs, while retaining an appropriate aesthetic. It is important to know how the user will interact with the UI, and how functionality and appearance will change, depending on the features being used at any one time. The Modern UI design style has its own unique principles and typography that can be managed using ConceptDraw DIAGRAM. The ability to design Windows 10 User Interface is delivered by the Windows 10 User Interface solution for ConceptDraw DIAGRAM.

Use this template to prototype and design the Windows graphic user interface.
"In human–computer interaction, WIMP stands for "windows, icons, menus, pointer", denoting a style of interaction using these elements of the user interface. ... Other expansions are sometimes used, substituting "mouse" and "mice" or "pull-down menu" and "pointing", for menus and pointer, respectively. ...
In a WIMP system:
(1) A window runs a self-contained program, isolated from other programs that (if in a multi-program operating system) run at the same time in other windows.
(2) An icon acts as a shortcut to an action the computer performs (e.g., execute a program or task).
(3) A menu is a text or icon-based selection system that selects and executes programs or tasks.
(4) The pointer is an onscreen symbol that represents movement of a physical device that the user controls to select icons, data elements, etc.
(5) cut, copy, and paste.
This style of system improves human–computer interaction (HCI) by emulating real-world interactions and providing better ease of use for non-technical people - both novice and power users. Users can carry skill at a standardized interface from one application to another.
Due to the nature of the WIMP system, simple commands can be chained together to undertake a group of commands that would have taken several lines of command line instructions." [WIMP (computing). Wikipedia]

"A window is a graphical control element. It consists of a visual area containing some of the graphical user interface of the program it belongs to and is framed by a window decoration. It usually has a rectangular shape that can overlap with the area of other windows. It displays the output of and may allow input to one or more processes.
Windows are primarily associated with graphical displays, where they can be manipulated with a pointer by employing some kind of pointing device.
A graphical user interface (GUI) using windows as one of its main "metaphors" is called a windowing system, whose main components are the display server and the window manager." [Window (computing). Wikipedia]
