Figma Make prompts, with real examples

This text addresses the lack of practical advice for writing effective Figma Make prompts. It highlights that current advice often lacks concrete examples and focuses on abstract concepts. The author introduces three approaches: using a Product Requirements Document (PRD), leveraging a Make Prompt Assistant, and applying the TOKEN framework. The PRD approach offers detailed upfront specifications, while the Make Prompt Assistant helps generate prompts from loose ideas. The TOKEN framework acts as a checklist for prompt completeness. The author then shares their own experiment: building a marketplace prototype with a single prompt to highlight the importance of detailed intent. They found that while promising, Figma Make still has inconsistencies. The text concludes by emphasizing the increasing importance of clear and effective prompting in the evolving landscape of design workflows, including potential cost considerations.
