Sketch is a handy application for drawing, editing and correlating vectors and is developed by Bohemian Coding. It comes with a wide variety of tools, which you can use to draw freely or design vectors.
It has an appealing interface, and an easy-to-use menu that will help Mac users to quickly get familiar with the tool. It provides various functions and tools especially designed for vectors, but it also allows the users to draw freely using various predefined shapes and adding visual effects to the items drawn. Adding inner and outer shadows and glows to an object can improve its aspect, by giving it a more vivid look.
This feature-rich application also provides distortion tools and a transformation tool which allows the users to manipulate an object in order to get a better understanding of how it looks in three-dimensional space. I find the tool to be well responsive to the commands and it comes with a great functionality. Unlike other similar products, the application does not burden your Mac, so it can be used simultaneously with other applications.
In conclusion, Sketch is a great tool for drawing and editing vectors, but it also allows the users to draw freely or using various predefined shapes that come with the tool, in a more professional way.
