From brief to live prototype using a design-to-code tool
summary
Shows how to go from a short brief to an interactive front-end using AI design-to-code tools, primarily Figma Make plus GPT/Gemini for prompt engineering. Presents a four-step workflow and three types of outputs—clickable prototypes, extractable (imperfect) code, and rapid A/B variants—while noting common failures (complex flows, validation, brand fidelity, accessibility) that require manual refinement.
