Prototyping with Figma Course (How To)
Offered By: Treehouse
Course Description
Overview
In this course, you'll learn how to build interactive and sharable prototypes in Figma, a web-based visual prototyping tool. You'll create a prototype for a "prosumer" mobile photography app, and by the end, you'll have a better understanding of how to create interactive prototypes that can be shared with project stakeholders and team members.

Interactive Prototypes in Figma
Once you've created a prototype in Figma, you'll want to share it with others. There are several ways to do this. In addition, prototypes can be interactive to demonstrate the flow between different screens.
