Prototyping in Figma involves testing the functionalities of the design app for effective usability and enjoyability. It involves interactive flows that explore how a user may interact with your designs. How to use the Prototype feature in Figma **Step 1: **Launch the Figma app version **Step 2: **You should have the whole website design which you want to prototype right in front of you. Step 3: Assuming you have 3 mobile frames which you want to prototype, the flow should be based on ease and use and not just your own impulse. For example, the prototype flow could begin from the home icon to signup to keyboard to order icon to pay icon to send icon- (this could differ based on the model you have made) Step 4: Once you have the design right in front of you, move up the cursor to where you have the prototype feature, which is next to Design. Step 5: Click on it, then some options would appear such as Trigger, and On click. Decide on the mode of design flow you want and begin the process. I, however, suggest master component feature for speeding up prototyping connections. Step 6: Once you have linked up every of the important icons/features on the design in such a way that each icon will lead the user to another icon on clicking any of them, then, click on done. Step 7: Once done, you can now copy the prototype link and send it out to your client or your team in order to test-run its performance. As a product designer, you can now keep calm and expect a feedback from your client to give a remark or corrections required. Prototyping is of great benefit but requires you as a product designer to be very attached and knowledgeable about the overall design you have done. One needs to study well the work flow and be more empathetic about the design. So many product designers use prototype framework in testing their work which reduces the stress of recreation and eliminates redundancy in design.

Do not worry. Here are some useful notes that will help you and, of course, prepare you well for this journey. I would not have prepared you well for this journey if I do not bring to bare what UI/UX connotes. UI/UX means User Interface/User experience. It is a skill that involves putting components, elements, texts and other features together for the purpose of defining, ideating and creating a typical web or mobile design structure. One can think about user interface to be the beauty of the design while user experience can be thought of as the functionality and usability of the design. Any application design you see has gone through quite a lot of design thinking processes that include: Empathy Ideation Prototype Test Empathy: This is the ability of the designer to be emotional about what the user needs. The designer should be able to feel and know the needs of users. Ideation: The UI/UX designer thinks about how the design should flow and what problem to solve. Prototype: This is the sample of the whole application design usually drafted to see and test how it would work in real life use. It could also be sent to the user for a review. The review of the user is very critical as UI/UX is not merely about colors and components, but is greatly dependent on putting the user first and thinking about what the user needs. The satisfaction derived by the user is also determined by where and how each icons and features are placed. User Experience should have some basic principles, which are: • Usable • Equitable • Enjoyable • Useful Usable: As a UX designer, you must build a design that is usable by the users. It should have all the necessary features such that it is able to fulfil the users need Equitable: the designer makes sure the whole app is easier to use both on the mobile app and desktop app. Enjoyable: The design should be one which can be enjoyed by the user during use. It shouldn’t be a complicating and difficult to use app by the user. Useful: Designs created by the UX designer should not be a dormant one that users can’t use. Test: This is the stage in which the design is being checked and modeled for its efficiency. It is tested using design tools like Figma or Adobe XD. At this testing stage, the design goes through three stages: internal test within your company; reviews with stakeholders; and external test with potential users. (Note: a stakeholder is a person you need to work with to complete the project or anyone who has some interest in the project.) New technologies are coming up virtually every day likewise mockup tool kits for Figma, therefore it is imperative to be informed and be updated about these new technologies.
