Tweaks

A plugin that adds subtle tweaks to the Sketch UI. Things like indent guides in the layers list, the ability to add color tags on layers, a button to collapse all groups, etc. Tweaks is a spinoff from the Midnight plugin, which included some of the same features under its Advanced Features section.

Midnight

The Midnight plugin brought a dark theme option to Sketch long before it was natively supported. My contributions were the additional features - indent guides, layer tags, and the infamous Collapse All Groups button in the sidebar.

Exportable

Exportable added the ability to create and save Export Presets, which could then be applied to layers and artboards with a single click.

You can now do this in Sketch itself via the Presets tab in Sketch > Preferences.

Runner

Runner was born at a hackathon, as a plugin that helped run commands from the keyboard. It is now a bundle of features to help designers work ultra fast.

Many of those features are now native to Sketch, making Runner my most sherlocked plugin.

Silver

Silver remains my most ambitious personal project yet!

Headers

Sketch Headers is a repository of Obj-C headers exported from Sketch. It is referenced by plugin developers to build and update their plugins. The best part: the process of exporting headers is automated using Github Actions! This means that whenever a Sketch update is released, the headers are exported automatically to Github without any manual input.

Base Align

Base Align added the ability to align text layers by their baseline rather than their bounding box. This feature is now natively available in Sketch as you drag text layers around.

Sketch Squares

Sketch Squares let you load photos from Instagram directly to your Sketch canvas. Unfortunately Instagram changed their policy and disallowed loading photos this way, thereby killing this project.

Now you can use the Sketch Data feature instead to load images from Unsplash!
