When a designer has made their changes to the files and their work is approved or goes live in production, they merge their changes to the main branch. This allows for faster syncing time and transparency on who is working on what part of your product or feature.Įach designer on your team syncs these main files to their local computer using the Abstract app so that they can work locally on the files within Sketch. At Abstract, we are shifting that mental model by breaking that one file into multiple files. That is how other tools have treated the idea of main files or how we treated it in our previous use of cloud file storage. The main branch is the most up to date version of your design files stored in the Abstract cloud.Īs designers, we have often thought about having one "main" or primary file for a product, feature or experience.
