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?

Hi @Auggy , isn’t possible at this moment but there is a feature request here : Create one prototype across the pages in a file
I merged your topic with this one, so we can gauge the overall interest under the same topic 🙂

Requested such a long time ago and still no progress 🤔?

This is much needed, having been messing with hardcore design system and I think this could even reduces page ram load for big projects.

Given how many years back folks have been asking for this, it seems unlikely that Figma thinks it’s an idea worth their effort. Of course not every feature users ask for can (or should) be implemented, but this is a pretty basic request. I have also had to do workarounds like keep all the frames for a prototype on the same page (which is a mess for me and for the developers who have to pick through them). I also end up duplicating pages so that I can plop them all onto the same page…and then you’ve got a alternate universe version of that screen, and you have to change it in both places if you are using pages to organize different parts of your product.

Definitely a pain.

@Figma can you please bump this up in priority. Hold off your other updates until this basic feature is implemented please.

Wow cant believed this feature has been requested for over 2 years and it still not implemented. Also coming from Sketch & Craft and I was 100% assuming this was a basic feature that Figma would support. Definitely a MUST have for any project, cannot go on designing all screens on 1 page so we can prototype, this is a designers and developers nightmare…
