And then you can easily drag, drop, design, and turn your ideas into something real, all on your screen.

And you know what’s the most relieving part? You don’t need to be a design expert. In Figma, you will find tools that are beginner-friendly, and you can experiment, explore, and express your creativity with those tools, even if it’s your very first try.
In this blog, we’ll walk you through how to create your very own website mockup in Figma, step by step. So, are you ready to turn your ideas into something awesome? Let’s get started.
Firstly, let’s note that a website mockup is a picture of what your website will look like. Or in simple words, you can say that it’s like a sample or preview before you build the real thing. You can use it to see where things like buttons, pictures, and text will go. It will also help you check if you have chosen the right colours and text size, as well as whether the design sizes look nice together or not. Mockups allow you to try out your design and make any necessary adjustments. Plus, besides checking your design, a mockup also helps you understand your website better. If you want to see things like how big the homepage is and how many pages your site will have, you can see them there. Most importantly, you can also see how your website will look on a phone, tablet, or computer. Making a mockup is an important first step. It helps you plan everything before you start building your website.
