  1. There is no need for prior design experience as Canva offers beginner-friendly tools and templates.\n\nOverview: \nThe Prototype feature in Canva empowers you to bring your design ideas to life, whether for advertisements, websites, or full application interfaces. With our easy-to-use platform, you can create professional-looking models from various templates for desktop, tablet, or mobile. Even though the Prototype option is not available under the Share options, you can still share your designs using a Public View link.\n\nGetting Started with Prototypes: \n\n- Searching and Selecting a Template:\n 1. Use the homepage's search bar by typing "Prototype."\n 2. Pick the type of template you want from the suggestions - desktop, tablet, or mobile.\n 3. Hover over the template thumbnail and select the More icon, then Preview this Template.\n 4. Click on the template that suits your design needs or choose to start a blank design.\n\nPublishing Your Prototype: \n- To share your design, click Share and then select Prototype. If there is no Prototype option, choose the Public view link instead.\n- Create a public view link, copy it, and paste it into a new browser tab to preview.\n- Share your design easily by sharing this link with others.\n\nLimitations and Tips:\n\n- Downloading Design: Currently, only the design itself can be downloaded without its mobile or desktop layout. We suggest using the Public view link to showcase it fully.\n- Navigation and Animations: Currently, any links or animations within your prototype will not be interactive, even after publishing.\n\nIf you need help with additional features or run into any issues, please let us know, and we’ll work towards improving your experience. Enjoy designing with Canva!
