I owe it a huge debt for pulling me away from the shudder-inducing Adobe UI design ecosystem that was Illustrator and Photoshop. I wouldn’t be in the role, job, or have the knowledge I do today without Sketch. It has been a FANTASTIC tool for making UI. Until I followed those tips and tricks that you find here on medium and realized that most of them just… don’t… scale.īasically, until I tried to use it for creating a product in the way that I thought should be possible.ĭon’t get me wrong. Until a new Sketch version came out and my design files suddenly didn’t open, or layers changed attributes, or the nested masked symbols that I had so lovingly created, named, and edited got overridden with said update. Until the painstaking constraints that I had made didn’t work in this or that situation, and I had no way to fix them.

Until I tried to figure out how to design with constraints in mind.
#2 TOWNS MADE MARION BOTTLE UPDATE#
Until I had another sketch plugin or program that I rely on a little bit too much forget to update itself with a new release. Until I tried to hand off Sketch files to developers and had to pay for an additional subscription to a different tool. Until I tried to work with Sketch files in a team environment. Until I tried to implement nested symbols to keep my UI consistent. Until I started working on a cross-platform design system. Every day, almost 8 hours a day, in and out, through and through, I love Sketch. I would have never contemplated writing this a few months ago. But when they’re better… it’s not even close.
Even where those happen, they’re barely worse. This is a battle of nuance, and there’s VERY few things that Figma does worse than sketch. The reason I’m writing this is because they’re not. At best, they make it seem like both are about the same. Some of them briefly mention the team features, the browserness, the components, and constraints, but they don’t really focus on how they’re better than versions in Sketch. I’ve read a lot of comparison articles about the two, but I don’t think they really do Figma justice.
