Document components while you build

Component docs tend to fall behind because they live somewhere else. In Figma Make, documentation can sit closer to the artifact: the component itself, the UI it powers, and the behavior it needs to support. You can iterate on the wording, refine the structure, and keep everything aligned as designs and logic change.

Generate component documentation with AI

Draft props, variants, and states

Prompt for a component API in plain language, and generate structured docs: props, defaults, variants, empty states, loading states, and error states—ready to refine.

Add real behavior, not just screenshots

Build an interactive UI in Figma Make, then document what changes with hover, focus, keyboard navigation, validation, and async states.

Keep docs aligned with code

Generate and refine test cases in the same workspace where you design and prototype—no copy-paste between tools.

Share updates without tool-hopping

Publish a functional prototype or web app to the public web when it’s ready, so teammates can review the latest behavior and documentation together.

Built by real teams.

See how makers, designers, and PMs are using Figma Make to build no-code web apps—from internal tools to product MVPs.
