What is Figma?

Try Figma

Figma is a collaborative design and prototyping platform, and Figma Make extends it with an AI app builder that helps you go from idea to interactive, data-connected apps without writing code manually. Describe what you want in natural language, refine in a visual editor, and test with real data in the same workspace. You can also start from existing Figma frames or designs to turn your layouts into functional app prototypes and full-blown apps.

What can I build in Figma with the AI app builder?

With Figma Make, you can generate functional apps, interactive prototypes, and web apps from natural language prompts. It’s suited for things like dashboards and data visualization, internal tools and admin panels, product MVPs, onboarding and quiz flows, scheduling and booking tools, and e-commerce interfaces, using either a text prompt or an existing Figma design as a starting point.

Do I need to code to create an app in Figma Make?

No coding is required to get started—Figma Make is a no-code AI app builder where you type prompts in plain language and the AI generates the UI, interactions, and underlying code automatically. You can also refine by clicking and editing in the visual editor, and there’s a built-in code editor if you want to view, adjust, or export the generated code.

How do I go from a prompt to a working prototype in Figma Make?

Start with a frame (from scratch or from an existing Figma design), then describe your app in natural language to define layout, flow, and functionality. Figma Make turns the prompt into an interactive, data-connected prototype you can then refine with animations, behaviors, or by prompting again to iterate.

Can I connect a backend so my Figma Make app uses real data?

Yes. Figma Make supports backend integration, so you can preview how your app looks and behaves with live, user-driven data while you design and iterate.

Can I reuse my existing Figma designs when building an AI app?

Yes. You can attach your existing Figma frames or components to your prompt, or paste them into the Figma Make AI chat, and the AI uses your design as a visual reference. This helps the generated app reflect your actual layouts, components, and content rather than generic UI.

Is Figma Make free, and can I publish what I build?

Figma Make includes a free Starter plan. You can also publish Figma Make apps, and access to publishing and code editing is available on paid plans.
