What is Sketch?
Sketch is a vector design app for macOS used for interface and product design, made by a Netherlands-based company.
What does it do?
Draws UI screens with vector tools, symbols, shared libraries and variables for consistent components. A companion web app handles prototype sharing, comments and developer handoff with measurements and asset export.
Who is it for?
Product and UI designers working on Mac, and design teams that prefer a native drawing app with browser-based review and handoff.
What are the alternatives to Sketch?
Figma is browser-based and stronger at multiplayer editing. Penpot is open source and self-hostable, Lunacy runs on Windows and opens Sketch files, and Excalidraw suits quick diagrams.
