#22How is Sketch file support? When we've tried to share files via Dropbox it's constantly stepping on each others toes just when someone tries to open it for view-only. Makes collaboration difficult between a designer and a developer. *Sketch files are actually folders with data, previews, etc. The act of opening the file actually modifies things like the thumbnail.

Sketch just officially launched 3.1 two days ago which creates files that are actually single files. We can still support version control for these files, but we are working on fixing the preview generation for the new Sketch format.

#24Products can be beautiful and delightful, but I'm not sure it's meaningful when you call your own product beautiful and delightful.
Agreed. Even if "beautiful" is a foundation of a company's strategy, I like it when they show me what I can do, and let me notice how beautiful they've made it.

Also agreed. It's a bit presumptuous to declare that your product possesses such subjective qualities.

I also wonder why someone would make a product that's not beautiful and delightful. It may not end up being beautiful or delightful for the users, but someone somewhere thought it was, right? "Ladies and gentlemen: let's make an ugly and irritating product."
