Introducing Figma Make: A New Way to Test, Edit, and Prompt Designs | Figma Blog (opens in new tab)
Figma Make is Figma’s new prompt-to-app tool for turning designs into interactive, testable experiences. It allows designers and product teams to start with existing Figma frames, add behavior through natural-language prompts, and iterate collaboratively without rebuilding everything in code. Figma’s goal is to make exploration faster while preserving design intent, structure, and craft.
Start with Existing Designs
- Users can copy frames from Figma Design into Figma Make, including their structure and metadata.
- Natural-language prompts transform static designs into interactive prototypes.
- The tool is designed to support the entire design process, from early sketches to developed prototypes.
- Figma Make currently uses Claude 3.7 Sonnet, with additional models planned.
Turn Static Designs into Interactive Experiences
- Add animations, interactive buttons, and real-time feedback without complex coding.
- Test features using dynamic data, including file uploads and data visualizations.
- Adapt designs across platforms and form factors, such as converting a mobile app design into a desktop version.
- Future capabilities are expected to include third-party database integrations and design-system support.
Real-Time Collaborative Exploration
- Figma Make is built into the Figma platform and supports multiplayer collaboration.
- Designers, product managers, and other team members can add features, test interactions, and incorporate data in the same file.
- By reducing the need for coding expertise, it enables broader participation in product exploration.
Point-and-Prompt Editing
- Users can select a specific element and describe the desired behavior, such as animating a button or responding to scrolling.
- This approach connects design intent directly to functional implementation.
- Figma Make preserves component hierarchies and design-system structure while adding interactive behavior.
From Canvas to Code and Publication
- Figma Make connects with existing Figma workflows, including Figma Design and Figma Sites.
- Teams can move from concept to prototype to published site without switching tools or recreating work.
- The workflow is intended to provide a continuous path from visual design through implementation.
Figma Make is positioned as a complement to—not a replacement for—traditional design work. Its practical value is in helping teams validate ideas sooner, explore more alternatives, and communicate functionality while retaining the original design’s structure and intent.
