Easy as it sounds. Check out the recap and below you will find a video guide. If you work as a freelancer or in a Team — here’s the idea. We’ll use: In Abstract, set up New Project named ___Support …

Want to improve your design workflow? Say hello to Cabana. A Design System for Sketch that helps you work better, smarter, and faster than ever before.

As UI design gets more interactive, new skills and faces emerge to give us a lesson on how to get animations and movement right when creating delightful screens for rather little devices. To…

If you’re a designer who wants to collaborate well: learn to include others in your process early and often, share and gain insights into how each side works, and focus on removing friction from your…

A new design to development workflow with Inspect for better collaboration between design and development.

This morning Sketch released a new feature called Libraries, and we’re excited to support this new design workflow on the first day it’s available. Update Abstract to get started! Libraries are the…

Hello team!! Finally Sketch 47 is here and, alongside a number of smaller bug fixes and improvements, this latest release includes one of our biggest updates yet.

PRO TIP: when Sketch releases a new version it's VERY likely that some plugins will break or that there might be some bugs. It happens when you innovate fast as the team does.

I highly suggest making a backup of your Sketch app (and any file BEFORE opening it with a new version). Then:

1) Duplicate the Sketch app in the app folder (Command + D)
2) Rename the "copy" with the version number (for example "Sketch App 43.2") 
3) Launch Sketch app (not renamed) and check for updates if you are not prompted with an update, and install them

Enjoy both, or more versions of Sketch at once, use them to open files from others that have not or cannot upgrade yet and use the latest one to make sure everything is working in your workflow before making the jump!

Safe Sketching everyone!

Working in Sketch, Figma or Photoshop? Framer offers a fully integrated import workflow, so you can go back and forth as many times as you need. Currently, you can only import a design into Code to start animation.

We're co-hosting this Meetup with other four groups this time. We're having a Fuse engineer coming from Oslo to speak, so I really hope to see you there!

Come and discover a new approach that integrates design, prototyping and development. Fuse unifies development with design through rapid, real-time workflow, visual tools and simplified code, resulting in real native apps for both iOS and Android (from the same codebase) - all the way from prototype to the app store.

In this presentation, we'll show some examples of what can be achieved with Fuse, and briefly examine the make up of a finished app.

Over the course of two full redesigns and our recent navigation refresh, we've worked to distill most of the MailChimp interface into a set of atomic pieces, forming the pattern library you see here. By documenting and assembling a reference site of our patterns, we were able to speed up our process and solve some internal communication problems. A common lexicon of code and UI elements benefits us in a few ways:

It's our SVG Sketch-a-thon. We've got Peter Nowell on who's the Sketchmaster to talk about SVG workflows, animation workflow, plugins for Sketch, and how working in software like Sketch is great but you should still know the code.
