How to Set Up Branching on Figma : Step-by-Step Guide

Begin by navigating to the Figma file in which you’d like to set up a new branch. This is the starting point where your branching process will take place.

Next, look towards the top toolbar of Figma’s interface. Locate the file name displayed there and click on the dropdown arrow beside it to reveal more options related to file management.

From the dropdown menu that appears, select the option labeled “Create branch.” This action initiates the process of branching your current file, allowing you to work on a separate version.

At this stage, you’ll be prompted to give your new branch a meaningful name. Enter a descriptive “Branch Name” that helps you and your team easily identify the purpose or contents of this branch.

Finally, confirm your action by clicking the “Create” button. This will establish your new branch, enabling you to work independently from the original file without affecting it.

With your branch successfully created, you’ve taken the first step towards efficient collaboration and version control. Now, you can quickly create a Supademo or continue building from this new working space.
