How Do You Wireframe a Figma?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 10:58 pm

Wireframing is the process of creating blueprints for your website or app. It’s a way to map out the structure and layout of your content, so you can start to visualise how your users will interact with it.

There are many different ways to wireframe a Figma, but in general, you’ll want to start by sketching out your ideas on paper or in a whiteboard. Once you have a rough idea of what you want, you can start creating your wireframes in Figma.

To create a wireframe in Figma, you’ll need to create a new canvas. You can do this by clicking the “+” icon in the top left corner of the screen.

Once you’ve created your canvas, you’ll need to add some frames. Frames are the basic building blocks of a wireframe, and they represent the different pages or screens that make up your website or app.

To add a frame, click the “Add Frame” button in the top left corner of the screen. This will bring up a menu of different frame types. For most websites and apps, you’ll want to use the “Rectangle” frame type.

Once you’ve added your frames, you can start adding content to them. To do this, double-click on a frame to open it up in the editor.

Then, click the “Add Text” button in the top left corner of the editor. This will bring up a text box that you can use to add text to your frame.

You can also add images to your frames by clicking the “Add Image” button in the top left corner of the editor. This will bring up a menu of different image types that you can choose from. Once you’ve selected an image, it will be added to your frame.

Once you’re happy with your wireframe, you can share it with others by clicking the “Share” button in the top right corner of the screen. This will bring up a menu of different ways that you can share your wireframe with others. You can share it as an image, PDF, or even HTML file.
