I've been working on a prototype for work this week. I'm using Figma's [variables](https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/14506587589399-Use-variables-in-prototypes?ref=michaelverdi.com) and [conditions](https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/15253220891799-Multiple-actions-and-conditionals?ref=michaelverdi.com) to make something that's pretty complex. The problem I'm running into today is that the Figma UI hides all of the code you've written so it makes it really hard to find mistakes. My big idea - type it all out and place it on the page next to the component that contains it.

This is the code that runs when click on one of the buttons in the prototype.
