This is Figma's own beginner walkthrough of turning static screens into a clickable flow, which is exactly how you fake a working product without building anything. You link frames with triggers and actions, then hand someone a demo they can tap through as if it were real. It is enough to test whether people understand and want your flow before a single line of code.

Figma Prototype Tutorial for Beginners

On youtube.com by Figma

  • Every Figma prototype is just a trigger (a tap or click) connected to an action (jump to another frame), so a clickable demo is faster to make than it looks.
  • A tap-through prototype lets real users try your flow and react, which surfaces confusion early while changing anything still costs minutes, not weeks.
