Thank you for the AMA. I have used Sketch for the past year but I still have not figured out how to create a color palette that if I change, all elements with that color palette change (like mixin in SASS).
An answer would be very much appreciated as it would make me really productive.

  I don't think that feature exists (yet?). I use a mix of text shared styles to make up for this. It's definitely more work, because you have to assign fills and strokes in different sizes and change all of them if you want to swap colors document wide, but at least you can can get there part of the way.

    Barring more modular style management, being able to globally find-and-replace attributes like style and color (like Fireworks had 15 years ago, which amazes me) would be really useful.

  Currently, there’s no way to do this without Plugins.

  You could create a palette with a Shared Style, and then simply change the original color. Like this: http://cl.ly/image/3y3U1B0V3d2M
