Which wireframing tools do you use?

Hello guys, I'm looking for a good wireframing tool with the following criteria:

  • Preferably a stand-alone desktop application (non-cloud app)
  • Preferably open-source, or free, or one-time cost with a perpetual license (no subscription)
  • Has lots of stencils (predefined UI components)
  • Easy to add new types of stencils (UI components) that I can reuse for different projects

Which tools would you recommend?

Thanks!

Adobe xd. It's free. Otherwise figma.

Tried sketch after using xd. Not impressed.

Ipad + apple pencil + goodnotes / microsoft one note is my favorite wireframing tools.

Yeah I agree, nothing can beat pen and paper for wireframing. Or in this case, ipad and apple pencil.

Arenโ€™t adobe xd and figma more like mockup tools though?

You can always wireframe with mockup tools since it's more versatile.
