Sketch

Vector graphics editor for macOS focused on UI/UX design with powerful plugin ecosystem.

Sketch is a vector graphics editor built specifically for digital design on macOS, with a focus on user interface and user experience design. Its lightweight, responsive canvas handles complex documents with hundreds of artboards without performance degradation. Sketch pioneered the symbols system for reusable components, which along with shared styles and responsive resizing rules, makes maintaining large design systems manageable. The platform has a thriving plugin ecosystem with thousands of extensions for automation, animation, data population, and developer handoff. Cloud collaboration features allow teams to share libraries, gather feedback, and inspect designs in the browser. After more than a decade, Sketch remains a preferred tool for UI designers who value a native macOS experience optimized for screen design workflows.
