Whilst I struggled with it a bit at first, prototyping in an excessively long way that meant it didn&#8217;t work very well, and that elements were low quality and didn&#8217;t work as well as they could have. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since then, I have been watching Figma&#8217;s tutorials, and learning a lot about the way that you can prototype, build different components, auto autolayout, and most importantly, Smart Animate! Which was the focus of this workshop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Smart Animation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This form of movement builds a cohesive and entertaining product, and is used throughout industry. With the availability for bouncy, gentle, and jolty movements, it was really nice to go over this again and build a vector lock. After this, I went home and learnt some stuff from  the Figma Workshops on Youtube. This included different hover state animations, as well as some scroll to find maps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"996\" height=\"660\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nua-ux.design\/hanley-whelpton\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-08-at-10.06.17.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nua-ux.design\/hanley-whelpton\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-08-at-10.06.17.png 996w, https:\/\/www.nua-ux.design\/hanley-whelpton\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-08-at-10.06.17-300x199.png 300w, https:\/\/www.nua-ux.design\/hanley-whelpton\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-08-at-10.06.17-768x509.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Because of this, I feel confident in my ability to progress further within Figma, by using the noodles to build different structures. I do however, hope to progress within Figma by looking into auto layout, and possibly by thinking more about the back end of the webpages  and products we design and build. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last year, I used Figma in the Appy Days project as part of BA1B.
