Sketch is a vector-based tool used for desktop and mobile UI design, mockups and prototypes, and today it’s considered an industry standard. You can also edit and manipulate photos with Sketch.

Benefits of Sketch 

Sketch is beloved for a reason. Before we go over its features, let’s talk about its benefits: 

• Simple and easy to learn; intuitive interface
• Create designs for multiple devices
• Clients can preview what will happen when they interact with a desktop, laptop, phone or tablet design
• Helpful collaboration features, especially with Sketch Cloud syncing and sharing
• The toolbar is similar to Mac
• There are an assortment of plugins that can be used with Sketch (Abstract, Craft, Flinto, etc.)
• Affordable

 Many of Sketch’s benefits are in comparison to Photoshop. For example, it functions similarly to Photoshop but at a lower price and by taking up less disk space. Some feel that Sketch may even overtake Photoshop at some point, at least when it comes to the leading prototyping tool. A big reason why Sketch may be more adept at screen design than Photoshop is because that’s what it was specifically designed for – it’s a younger, more modern tool that was purpose-built.
