What if your Figma prototypes could instantly evolve into fully functional web apps, complete with a real backend? The latest Figma Make update makes this a reality by integrating Supabase’s robust backend services. Designers and product teams can now bridge the gap between concept and production, no context switching, code handoffs, or backend expertise required.

From Idea to App: AI-Powered Backend Creation

This integration radically accelerates the journey from prototype to product. Figma Make’s AI-powered prompts detect when a backend is needed and let you add authentication, databases, or storage with simple instructions. Just describe your app’s needs, and Supabase takes care of the technical setup behind the scenes.

  • No backend expertise needed: Simply tell Figma Make what you want, Supabase handles the details.

  • Faster workflows: Eliminate handoffs and keep your momentum going, all within Figma.

Real Data, Real Apps: Built-In Postgres Database

Supabase equips your Figma Make projects with a production-grade Postgres database. Create and manage structured tables, define relationships, and use a secure API to interact with your data. Whether you’re building a CRM, journaling tool, or any data-driven app, your prototype now runs on scalable infrastructure.

Prompt example: “Create an internal CRM where sales reps can log new leads, track status updates, and filter leads by region or priority.”

Seamless Authentication: Secure User Experiences

Adding authentication is now effortless. Figma Make and Supabase support email/password, magic link, and social logins like Google and GitHub. Supabase ensures users can only access their own data, letting you focus on user experience, not security headaches.

Prompt example: “Build a customer portal with Google sign-in where users can view their order history and only see their own data.”

Effortless File Storage and Management

Need users to upload images, PDFs, or other files? Supabase Storage integrates directly, enabling secure file uploads and access control inside your Figma Make apps. Build content submission platforms or user profiles requiring uploads all without custom backend code.

Prompt example: “Create a platform where users can upload images and pitch decks, and only access their own files.”

Advanced Features: External Data and AI Capabilities

Supabase’s integration adds even more power to Figma Make by letting you connect to live data and external APIs. Use Edge Functions to run serverless backend logic or Foreign Data Wrappers to query outside databases as if they’re native. Plus, incorporate AI features like semantic search and personalized recommendations using vector embeddings.

  • Edge Functions: Enable fast, dynamic data interactions close to your users.
  • Foreign Data Wrappers: Query APIs and external sources seamlessly.
  • Vector Embeddings: Unlock AI-powered search and recommendations in your app.

Redefining Product Development Speed

The Figma Make and Supabase integration empowers teams to move from idea to launch without technical bottlenecks. By reducing handoffs and enabling functional prototypes within Figma, you can focus on innovation and user needs, knowing your designs can scale into real, production-ready applications. Experience the future of rapid app development by trying this integration and watch your ideas come to life, faster than ever.
