Wireframe
A Wireframe is a visual outline of a web page or web element. In a design sense, it’s intended to provide a sketch of the eventual live design. It can be easier and quicker to make design adjustments at this stage, so that you avoid costly and lengthy adjustments to more complicated web elements later in the design process.

Minimum Viable Product (MVP)
A Minimum Viable Product (MVP) is a term most often used in product development in business. It refers to the least a particular product needs to do in order to be usable by its intended user.
The purpose of the MVP is to create a usable product and get feedback on it immediately, before additional features are added. This can reduce development time by identifying flaws in a product early in the development process.
This can also relate to web-based applications, which often have non-core features that are not needed for the product to work well for a majority of its users.

Call to Action (CTA)
A Call to Action is any prompt on a website or app asking the user to take a specific action, often in the form of a clickable button. “Buy Now” is a common example, though calls to action don’t always have to involve a purchase. Signing up for a newsletter or downloading a free eBook can be valuable CTAs that increase user trust and also obtain contact information of interested visitors.
