You’ll understand how not to waste your time on technical moves, but rather on coming up with ideas and solving client problems. Shortcuts, symbol libraries, common styles and several useful plugins will help you with this.
Sketch is a good starting point to understand the universal principles of working in such editors and learn how to organize design projects.
You’ll understand how not to waste time on technical moves, but to be engaged in coming up with ideas and solving client tasks. Shortcuts, symbol libraries, generic styles and several useful plugins will help you with this. The course work will involve small practical tasks as part of the Daily UI Challenge. Sketch is easy to learn – most of the features are on the surface, except for a few subtleties that you’ll be able to figure out as well.
Sketch has long since become the interface designer’s main tool. This application has become the basis for numerous plugins and has learned to interact with the main prototyping tools.
