Complementarity of Figma and Webflow
Discover how Figma and Webflow complement each other to provide a smooth and efficient web design and development experience. By combining the advantages of Figma and Webflow, you can design, prototype and develop outstanding websites with ease and speed.
Real-time collaboration
Figma allows multiple people to work on the same project at the same time, which facilitates collaboration and communication between the design and development teams.
Advanced prototyping
Figma offers advanced prototyping features, such as the ability to create interactions and animations, allowing Webflow designers to recreate designs at the pixel level.
Design System
Figma allows designers to create system designs, i.e. reusable sets of rules and components that can be used to create consistent and efficient designs in Webflow.
Creation of adaptive designs
With Webflow's advanced layout features, it is possible to design flexible and responsive designs that adjust to different devices for an optimal user experience.

How long does it take to develop a Figma model in Webflow?
Several criteria should be taken into account
- Number of pages
- Number of events
- Design complexity
Generally speaking, the development of Figma models in Webflow takes between 1 and 3 weeks.
Are there any differences between a Figma model and a Webflow site?
None or almost none. Webflow is a real web design tool. We can reproduce your Figma layout with pixel accuracy in Webflow.
Is it possible to convert a Figma file into a Webflow project?
Yes, there is now a plugin (an extension) that allows you to convert sections (in auto-layout) on Figma to Webflow. However, you have to be careful, because there can be some bugs in the conversion if the layout on Figma is not designed perfectly. Moreover, the conversion in Webflow does not allow to have a project that respects the best web practices.
What are the similarities and differences between Webflow and Figma?
Webflow and Figma are two complementary tools that are used at different stages of the website creation process.
Figma is a user interface (UI) design platform that allows designers to create interactive website mockups and prototypes. Webflow, on the other hand, is a web authoring tool that allows users to create responsive and interactive websites without having to write code.
Although both tools are used in the website creation process, there are many similarities and differences between them.
Similarities between Webflow and Figma include:
- Real-time collaboration for teamwork
- Web design tools
- Cloud-based (accessible from anywhere in the world)
The main and big difference between these two tools is that Figma is mainly used for user interface design, while Webflow is mainly used for website creation.
What are the use cases of Webflow and Figma in web design projects?
When creating or redesigning a website, Figma and Webflow are tools that will be useful in every part of the process.
Figma will be useful in the first phase for :
- The creation of a graphic charter
- The conceptualization of the user experience
- Creation of design mock-ups for user interfaces
- Interactive interface prototyping for validation and testing
- Real-time collaboration with team members for user interface design development
- Creation of system designs and libraries of reusable elements for design consistency
Then, Webflow will be used to :
- The development of the Figma model without the need to code
- The addition of advanced features such as animations and custom interactions
- The creation of a CMS (Content Management System) for clients
- Integration of other tools such as Google Analytics, MailChimp and Zapier for advanced use of these tools in website management
- The hosting and the setting on line of the Web site
By using Figma and Webflow together, design (designers) and development (developers) teams can create a consistent user interface and functional, interactive websites. The combination of these tools can speed up the development and design process, while delivering high quality results.
