**[Headway](https://daily.dev/sources/headway)** · 12 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Explores how AI tools like Figma Make, Cursor, and Claude Code can automate the tedious parts of prototyping, specifically connecting interactions and creating animations. Walks through a practical example of building an Instacart search prototype using Figma Make, covering setup, prompting strategies, and iterative refinement. Discusses real limitations including inconsistent results, poor mobile support, and unknown code quality, while identifying valuable use cases for stakeholder presentations, developer communication, and user testing.
