The importance of prototyping at Figma

Prototyping plays a crucial role in the design process at Figma, allowing designers to explore and iterate on ideas before finalizing their designs. By creating prototypes, designers can effectively communicate their design vision to stakeholders and gain buy-in for their ideas. Prototyping also enables designers to validate their designs with users, gather feedback, and make improvements. At Figma, the prototyping team focuses on making prototyping a more deliberate and integral part of the design process, empowering designers to push their ideas further and bridge the gap between design and engineering.
