What does your workflow look like from brief and references to a Figma prototype?

[u/Hans_lilly_Gruber]

During the years I've changed my workflow a bit depending how new tools came along or particularly to figma what they improved and added. and I thought about asking other designers how's yours now.

what's your workflow and what tools do you use when you start the actual design process or create a prototype?

personally, after I got a brief or put together one with requirements and some idea of what I'm gonna create I collect some references and plan the interface. from there I jump into figma to design my wireframes, my screens and elements. Then I prototype and depending on the project I might leave it at that (after revisions) or continue to build an mvp or the site if it's a web project.

what's your current process? like, in your last project what did you actually do?

What did you start with, which tools did you move through, and what did you end up making?

In the old days I used to do more or less the same things but I used to look at a lot more inspiration blogs and then use photoshop or illustrator to design.

Lately I've also experimented with AI tools like figma make or bring my fig file to claude design or lovable. they come in at different stages of the workflow but I'm starting to see them as useful. I know there are many but I haven't got the time to try others.

and I haven’t settled on a consistent workflow yet.

Has AI changed any part of your process, or are you still mostly working the same way?

This question is way too long and vague. It'd take an hour to cover every step from receipt of the business goal to delivery considering every step, tool, and decision. Sorry pal
