Summary  
This chapter explains the concept of using structured containers (frames) instead of simple grouping to organize elements, enabling advanced layout controls, constraints, and greater flexibility.  

General domain of usage  
UI/UX design and prototyping

O uso de frames geralmente é melhor do que o agrupamento no Figma, pois oferece maior flexibilidade e funcionalidade. Aqui estão os principais motivos pelos quais **frames** costumam ser preferidos em relação aos **grupos**:

Frames allow you to set constraints for each child object independently, enabling responsive designs that adapt to resizing.

Groups do not support constraints, making them less useful for dynamic layouts.

Frames act as containers with their own properties (like padding, grids, and background fills) that can guide and structure the design.

Groups are simpler and lack these advanced layout options, which limits their utility for complex or responsive designs.

Frames can be resized, and their child objects adjust based on constraints or scaling settings.

Groups don't provide the same level of control over resizing; resizing a group affects all objects uniformly without any customization.

Frames can contain other frames, which is helpful for creating nested structures and layouts. They also work seamlessly with masks, ensuring objects within the frame behave as expected when resizing or repositioning.

Groups, while useful for organizing layers, lack the advanced hierarchical capabilities of frames.

Frames allow you to apply layout grids, which are essential for structured and consistent designs, especially for responsive or grid-based projects.

Frames can have their own fills, strokes, shadows, and effects.

Groups cannot have independent styling; they rely solely on the styles of the objects they contain.

When you need responsive design, precise layout control, or advanced features like grids, constraints, and backgrounds.

For simple organization of related objects without requiring advanced layout functionality.

Verdadeiro ou falso: Frames são melhores para design responsivo e para repasse aos desenvolvedores.
