Build and published a live site in Figma (3 steps)

Lately I’ve been getting questions about how I’m eating while cutting weight while strength training.

So I built a site for it.

Not in Webflow.
Not in Framer.
Not in Notion.
Not in code.

I built it directly inside Figma. Designed it, published it, done.

Figma dropped a new Sites feature at Config that lets you go from frame to published page without ever leaving the canvas.

I wanted to give it a spin, so I gave myself a simple challenge to build and publish a live page in just a few hours.

It was pretty fast.

Here’s what I did:

Now I’ve got a clean index page where I can share experiments and test new ideas over time.

Would I use this for a client site or full portfolio? I'm not sure... maybe if it was very basic and needed to happen very fast.

But if you’re already inside Figma and want a friction-free way to...

This hits the mark.

You don’t always need the perfect tool. Sometimes the one already open is the fastest path to done.

More experiments coming soon.
