It is one of the best for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/blog\/creating-ux-portfolio-4-dos-donts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">building a portfolio<\/a> and showing off your skills. When working in an enterprise-level company, Figma might not be enough, as it&#8217;s difficult to translate its design into code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is where UXPin comes in. It helps designers and developers communicate and use a shared library of UI components which can be copied from design to development workflow. No translation needed. That&#8217;s why we decided to build a Figma plugin and help you bring Figma design to UXPin for more robust prototyping. <a href=\"https:\/\/uxpin.com\/sign-up\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sign up for a free trial<\/a> to build your first UXPin prototype today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"try-uxpin-banner\">\n    <div class=\"try-uxpin__container\">\n        <div class=\"try-uxpin__left\">\n            <p class=\"try-uxpin__heading\">Build advanced prototypes<\/p>\n            <p class=\"try-uxpin__text\">Design better products with States, Variables, Auto Layout and more.<\/p>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/sign-up\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n                <button class=\"try-uxpin__button\">Try UXPin<\/button>\n            <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n        <div>\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/uxpin.com\/studio\/wp-content\/themes\/uxpin-juggernaut\/img\/cta-banner-signup.png\" class=\"try-uxpin__image\" alt=\"Try UXPin\">\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<style>\n.try-uxpin-banner {\n    margin: 40px 0px;\n}\n\n.try-uxpin__container {\n    display: flex;\n    max-width: 689px;\n    height: 210px;\n    padding: 20px;\n    padding-left: 24px;\n    border: 2px solid black;\n    border-radius: 4px;\n    align-items: center;\n    justify-content: space-between;\n    background-color: white;\n    box-shadow: 10px 10px black;\n}\n\n.try-uxpin__left {\n    width: 54%;\n}\n\n\n.try-uxpin__heading {\n    font-size: 28px !important;\n    font-weight: bold;\n}\n\n.try-uxpin__left p {\n    margin: 10px 0px !important;\n    color: black !important;\n}\n\n.try-uxpin__text {\n    margin: 0 !important;\n    font-size: 18px !important;\n    line-height: 22px !important;\n}\n\n.try-uxpin__button {\n    width: 135px;\n    height: 44px;\n    background: black;\n    margin: 10px 0px;\n    padding: 10px 20px;\n    border: none;\n    border-radius: 2px;\n    color: white;\n    font-size: 16px;\n    text-align: center;\n}\n\n.try-uxpin__button:hover {\n    cursor: pointer;\n}\n\n.try-uxpin__image {\n    max-width: 320px !important;\n    height: 200px;\n    margin-right: -21px;\n    margin-bottom: -6px;\n}\n\n@media (max-width: 760px) {\n    .try-uxpin__container {\n        height: auto;\n        margin: 10px;\n        align-items: left;\n    }\n}\n\n@media (max-width: 500px) {\n    .try-uxpin__container {\n        flex-direction: column;\n    }\n\n    .try-uxpin__left {\n        width: 100%;\n        align-items: normal;\n    }\n}\n\n<\/style>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-design-in-figma-prototype-in-uxpin\">Design in Figma.

This doesn&#8217;t mean designers work with code; UXPin renders HTML, CSS, and Javascript behind the scenes to give designers the same fidelity and functionality as code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These four features powered by code allow designers to create more advanced prototypes in UXPin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-states\">States<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/docs\/editor\/states\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UXPin States<\/a> allows designers to create multiple states for a single component. For example, a button can have several states, which include different properties triggered by user interactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>States also allow designers to create complex components like functioning <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/examples\/multilevel-dropdown-navigation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dropdown menus<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/examples\/stepper\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">steppers<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/examples\/carousel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">carousels<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/examples\/accordion\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">accordions<\/a>, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-interactions\">Interactions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Designers can create complex <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/docs\/editor\/interactions\/#adding-interactions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UXPin Interactions<\/a> constrained by code rather than a design tool&#8217;s limitations. UXPin also offers many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/docs\/editor\/interactions\/#triggers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Triggers<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/docs\/editor\/interactions\/#actions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Actions<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/docs\/editor\/interactions\/#animations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Animations<\/a> to design immersive prototype experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/docs\/editor\/interactions\/#conditional-interactions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Conditional Interactions<\/a> with &#8220;if-then&#8221; and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/docs\/editor\/interactions\/#if-else-conditions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">&#8220;if-else&#8221; conditions<\/a> allow design teams to create dynamic prototypes that respond to user inputs and triggers. This Javascript-like interactivity lets designers see how design decisions impact the user experience and pinpoint areas for improvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With these realistic interactions, stakeholders and engineers need little explanation making the feedback process and design handoffs more productive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-variables\">Variables<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s impossible to test forms in most design tools, including Figma. <em>Why?<\/em> Because the fields are images rather than inputs. In UXPin, form fields function as if they were developed by an engineer. UXPin gives designers text inputs, checkboxes, radios, selects\/dropdowns, multi-selects, and buttons ready to use out of the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/m8pzuJvsSXr5FlELlYRfin49U4UHwFWQkVJzq5WUs5PgHSfMQ6EercDGSqCoikoYiGS9G1eOLh3YDXe7vfEW6qF_uQ77NEUR6M672GbhV3kFYIyAdqU2sQWWl6Cn88RIkoAFaHFapmiJuKBkZkFwmG805dGPqf0xNGsrSD6uQ8ITuWhU5X3UOdvMXQ\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:650px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/docs\/editor\/variables\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Variables<\/a>, designers can capture user inputs from prototypes and use that data elsewhere in the application. For example, capturing a user&#8217;s information during signup and using the name field to create a personalized welcome message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-expressions\">Expressions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/docs\/editor\/expressions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UXPin&#8217;s Expressions<\/a> enable designers to take prototyping far beyond the possibilities of any other design tool. Validate passwords and other form fields, design a functioning shopping cart that updates based on user interactions, create dynamic error messages, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When combined with other UXPin features like States, Interactions, and Variables, Expressions enable designers to build prototypes, and user flows indistinguishable from code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn more about these and other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dgkz9CQV_PY\">advanced UXPin features in this YouTube tutorial<\/a> from UX design influencer Jesse Showalter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"UXPin | Advanced Features\" width=\"660\" height=\"371\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dgkz9CQV_PY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-reasons-to-turn-your-figma-mockups-into-interactive-uxpin-prototypes\">5 Reasons to Turn Your Figma Mockups into Interactive UXPin Prototypes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-high-fidelity-prototyping\">1. High-Fidelity Prototyping<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Figma:<\/strong> Beautiful-looking vector mockups that unfortunately don&#8217;t replicate real-like functionality or fidelity, making prototypes challenging to interpret for devs and stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>UXPin:<\/strong> Code-like fidelity and functionality allow designers to create immersive, dynamic prototype experiences indistinguishable from the final product\u2013<em>less documentation, smoother design handoffs, and faster time-to-market.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a big difference between a high-fidelity mockup (what Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, etc. produce) vs. a high-fidelity prototype that looks and feels like the final product.
