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?

+1 here to continue the requests coming, as I search for solutions to my giant prototype turned nightmare

+1, really need this to create organized prototypes based on more complex design structures.

As probably mentioned multiple times. Having complex workflows is convenient to organize as seperate pages. Otherwise one looses track. Now converting these screens/states into a prototype it’s a Must-have to be able to do so without any duplication workarounds or such. It’s not a nice-to-hace it’s a most-have capability!

How on earth has this not been implemented yet? It’s a fundamental requirement of a web prototyping tool.

Add another vote… having to copy stuff to move it to a single page to have a prototype flow is crazy cumbersome. And if I tweak something in the copied element, I have to remember to do the same in the “original”.

It’s pretty odd, because it seems like a crazy common use case. The technical challenges must be legendary or something.

I suppose this topic has not moved forward so far, but nothing stops us from commenting here as to how helpful this feature would be.

I created a single file with a single page dedicated to the prototype. I use the rest of the pages as an archive for the screenshots, so that I can edit them more easily. Come on guys, let’s make this feature online!
