"AI is reshaping how we design products, and the tools are evolving rapidly. Figma Make, Figma's prompt-to-code prototyping tool, now lets you choose which AI model powers your output, with Claude 4.6 and Gemini 3 as the two main options. But does the model choice actually matter? To find out, I gave both models the same detailed prompt and compared the results. Here's what I learned about how each model handles complex UI generation in Figma Make,"
"Figma Make is an AI-powered prompt-to-code tool that is a part of the Figma ecosystem. Although it has a name "Figma" in it, Make is very different from the traditional Figma Design files. Rather than assembling static frames and components by hand, you describe what you want in plain language, and Make generates a fully interactive, high-fidelity prototype for you, complete with working React and Tailwind CSS code running underneath."
Figma Make lets users generate interactive, high-fidelity prototypes from plain-language prompts, producing working React and Tailwind CSS code beneath the interface. The tool offers a model selection between Claude 4.6 and Gemini 3 to power generation. Both models were provided the same detailed prompt to evaluate differences in handling complex UI generation and output fidelity. Make differs from traditional Figma design files by creating prototypes from prompts instead of manual assembly of frames and components. The comparison focuses on model behavior, generated code quality, fidelity of interactions, and which model currently delivers a superior prototyping experience.
