Having a menu as the only place to really see these reusable components caused me to stumble more times than not when I needed to make a change to one of them. It took a bit of getting used to, and in some ways it shifts heavily from what I’m familiar with. I find things broadly where I have become accustomed to finding them as a Sketch user and they function very similarly. At the same time, there are a lot of features and choices made that make the transition from Sketch quite easy. XD is a good blend of familiar patterns, shortcuts, terminology, and expectations when working in an Adobe product.
Poor performance in Sketch can be pretty painful I feel at home I always feel like I’m moving (or trying to move) faster than the software. That is one of my biggest complaints with Sketch these days.
#Adobe xd libraries trial#
Because we already subscribe to the Adobe Creative Cloud suite of products it made sense to take Adobe XD for a trial run to see if it had what it would take to become our preferred design tool.īefore jumping into the comparison, it’s worth mentioning that this isn’t an exhaustive review and I didn’t fully explore all of the features of the software. That being said, I have my gripes with Sketch and we use Labs initiatives at Mission Data to explore new tools as well as emerging technologies, languages, or frameworks. This move was a much needed departure from our past using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator which were frankly never intended for this type of work. Over the past few years, our approach has been to use Sketch for almost all aspects of UX/UI design. In a recent project that is still underway for Mission Data Labs, we needed some quick mockups for the development team to work from and to help us understand the requirements for the screens we were implementing.
