Description
Figma Prototyping: A deep dive for UX, UI Designer
Bring your design alive with Figma prototyping. In this deep dive, we will learn everything about creating basic prototypes, smart animating in Figma, re-usable interactive components, stunning interactions with variables, expressions and conditional statements and how to share and document.
We’ll start with the basics and learn how to connect our screens, add different scrolling behaviours, and preview our design, as well as some tips and tricks to present your prototypes.
We will explore the different triggers, animation types and how to create a stateful design with the help of Figma sections.
We will move on to smart animate the magic part prototyping in Figma. I’m going to show you all of smart animates superpowers and we’re also going to talk about their limitations and do some troubleshooting.
Then we will learn how to set up micro-interactions with interactive components in Figma. This will save you a lot of time when it comes to adding standard behaviour to instances across your design. And that’s also where Figma unleashes its truly impressive potential, namely when combining auto layout, smart animate and interactive components.
Finally, I’ll show you tips and techniques for documenting and sharing your prototypes for handoff, and we’ll take a look at interactive component documentation in Figma as well as external design systems.
I will provide you with a Figma file that lets you follow alongside me during the videos or return to exercises with detailed instructions in your own time.
This course is for you if you have a basic knowledge of Figma or if you are an advanced Figma user and want to improve your prototyping skills.
