About:
Abstract is a version control and collaboration platform built specifically for design teams. It allows designers to version control Sketch files, similar to how developers use Git for code. The tool facilitates seamless collaboration through branching, commenting, and approval workflows, ensuring design consistency across teams.
Key Features:
  • Version control for Sketch files
  • Branching and merging for iterative design
  • Design system management and component sharing
  • Commenting and approval workflows
Use Cases:
  • Managing design iterations without fear of overwriting work
  • Collaborating on design files with distributed teams
  • Maintaining a centralized design system
Alternatives:
  • Figma – Figma is browser-based and offers real-time collaboration, whereas Abstract is desktop-based with a Git-like workflow.
  • Sketch – Sketch has built-in libraries for components, but Abstract provides robust version control and team management features.
