A prototype in Figma is an interactive simulation of a user interface that demonstrates how a website, app, or digital product will function. It allows designers to link frames (screens or pages) together with clickable areas and transitions to mimic user actions like navigation, clicks, or gestures—without writing any code.

Prototyping in Figma is useful for visualizing user flows, testing design ideas, and gathering feedback before development begins. Designers can define interactions such as "on click," "hover," or "drag," and apply animations like sliding, fading, or smart transitions between frames. Prototypes can be shared with team members, clients, or stakeholders via a link, and viewed in real time on desktop or mobile devices.

Figma’s prototyping tools are built directly into the design environment, which makes it easy to move from static designs to interactive demos quickly and efficiently. This streamlines the design process, helps uncover usability issues early, and ensures everyone involved understands how the final product is intended to function.
