How Do I Make a Clickable Wireframe in Figma?

Building a clickable wireframe in Figma is a great way to test out your app or website design before you start coding. Plus, it’s a lot of fun! Here’s how to do it:

1. Create your design in Figma. You can use any of the built-in shapes, or import your own images.

2. Once you’re happy with your design, select the frame that you want to make clickable. Then, go to the “Prototyping” tab in the right sidebar.

3. In the “Prototyping” tab, you’ll see a list of all the screens in your project. Select the screen that you want to link to from your clickable frame.

4. Now, you’ll see two options for how to link the screens together: “Transition” and “Action.” Transition will animate the link between the two screens, while Action will just go directly to the linked screen. Choose whichever option you prefer.

5. That’s it! Now when you click on your frame in the prototype mode, it will take you to the linked screen. You can continue linking together different screens to create a complete prototype of your app or website.

PRO TIP: If you are not careful, you can easily create a clickable wireframe in Figma that is not responsive. This can lead to frustration for your users, as they will not be able to click on elements that are not sized correctly for their device. Take care to test your wireframes on multiple devices before making them live.
