Create one prototype across the pages in a file

I would love to be able to create one prototype across the pages in a file that resembles an actual website. This would be ideal for bigger projects and would be easier to maintain as well. We can connect the component libraries across all the pages anyways. A way to connect the prototype would be great in my opinion and that will give Figma a big leg up on other platforms.

What do you guys think?

    It is critical that overlays may be used across pages, here’s why. We have many reusable components that trigger overlays: header component and menu overlay, sign in button and modal, date field and picker overlay. These component live in a shared library, but then have to be used in production files. When we use components in prototypes the interactivity breaks. It is not feasible to relink every instance with its overlays. Please advise.

                    After changing employers, I moved from Axure RP to Figma. Was surprised something similar to pages wasn’t here. Made me sad. The other thing I really miss is the ability to create a “working” form element. Please add those. Pretty please!

                    Every time I start a project that will likely require (or at least GREATLY benefit from) screens being broken out into a multi-page or multi-file structure over the last year, I’ve searched the internet and found this thread.

                    As much as I wish this feature had been implemented ages ago, I appreciate that this thread is still active.

                    Please make this a thing soon.
