Figma Prototyping

Create interactive flows to test ideas before writing code.

Why it matters

Clickable prototypes surface usability issues early.

Core steps

  • Establish an 8px grid and consistent spacing tokens.
  • Use components and variants for buttons, inputs, and cards.
  • Wire frames with interactive links and hover states.
  • Share prototypes with stakeholders and capture notes inline.

Tip

Keep text styles and color tokens in a single library to avoid drift.
