Overview

Figma develops collaborative tools for designing digital products. Design files let teams work with visual layouts and reusable components, while prototyping and developer-facing features help communicate how interfaces should behave and be implemented.

Products and role

Designers assemble screens from layers and components, then use prototypes to connect interactions. Shared files and comments give collaborators a common place to review the design.

A useful distinction

A prototype communicates intended behavior but is not the deployed application. Implementation must still handle real data, accessibility, responsive layouts, and interaction states beyond the demonstration.
