Apart from Figma, is there any other software for prototyping?

Absolutely! It just depends on what your goals are and how much fidelity you need. In other words: do you need something that's fully interactive and feels like the real thing? Or do you need something to just test a hypothesis and make an idea more tangible? The tool you use should support your needs. Primitive/Low-Fidelity - best for quick testing of an idea: - Paper and sharpie (yup, I'm serious) - Keynote/Powerpoint Basic/Medium-Fidelity - when your idea is more complex or you're testing interaction models, navigation, etc. - Sketch (built-in prototyping) - Figma (built-in prototyping) - Invision (w/ Invision Studio or one of the above) Advanced / High-fidelity - when you need something that feels... "real" - Sketch (built-in prototyping) - Figma (built-in prototyping) - Invision (w/ Invision Studio or one of the above) - Framer (code-centric) - Principle (great for testing animations/transitions) There are many many others, but these are the most frequently used tools found in my tool chest. Axure is too far on the "why-not-just-build-it" spectrum for me. Balsamiq is too corny and single-purpose. Again, depends on your goals, your comfort level with the tools and the time available for putting it all together.
