The Figma community gathers designers, graphic artists, web developers, students, trainers and web design amateurs. A very active nocode community where you can find all kinds of web design: wireframe, icons, illustrations, web models, etc. Here is how to join the Figma community!

Key points to remember

The Figma Community brings together designers, developers, educators and even hobbyists who share hundreds of diverse web projects :

  • Wireframe
  • Web design
  • Design system
  • Illustrations
  • Icons
  • Web design
  • Mobile design
  • UT Kit
  • Plugins and Widgets
  • etc.

Each of these projects can be easily duplicated for free. For each step of your web project, you can start with free templates that can be downloaded from the Figma Community with a simple click. Beyond duplicating, anyone can share them by becoming a member of the Figma Community. You can also find thousands of projects in our community!

In this article we show you how to integrate the figma community so you can start sharing your web projects and designs.

Step 1: Login to your Figma account

Start by logging into your Figma account. If you don't have an account yet, you can easily create a Figma account from this link. By default, all new Figma accounts are private, so all the projects you create are only visible to you and the people you share them with. Once connected, do not enter a Figma project, stay on your dashboard.

Step 2: Access your settings

Access your Figma settings from your dashboard like this:

  1. Click on your icon/photo in the top right corner
  2. Click on "Settings" to access your Figma settings

Step 3: Create your first public profile

Your Figma settings will open as a pop-up.

  1. Click on the "Community" tab to access your Figma community settings. You have never created a public account before, but Figma welcomes you with a smile :)
  2. Click on "Claim your handle" to create your first public account on Figma.

Step 4: Set your public profile name

You are almost there!

  1. Now choose the name of your public profile Figma. This name will be present in your public URL to identify you easily.
    For example, for our web agency Digidop, we have chosen with a lot of originality to name our public account Figma, Digidop. You can easily find all our Figma projects from the URL: https:// www.figma.com/ @digidop. In the same way, your public profile will be named https:// www.figma.com/ @YourName
  2. Then click on "Create profile".
