    Can someone enlighten me on this? It seems to be more of a tool for designing apps and icons, not responsive web. Since it would be unrealistic to have artboards as the breakpoints? (Desktop HD, desktop, tablet, phablet, mobile)

      Not sure how you could make it work with Sketch (Google was not very helpful here). If you need a design program that is geared toward web designers and also has support for flexible canvases with breakpoints… look at Macaw: http://macaw.co/

      I can see how Sketch 3 can help with designing responsive sites. Shared text/layer styles and symbols could allow you to string multiple art boards together for different viewports more easily than Sketch 2.

      P.s. I think it also depends on how you personally do responsive design. For example, some people do mockups for all the breakpoints… some people do style guides or UI kits, and then go into the code. Also, do you do mobile-first design or desktop-down?

      Between Sketch, Macaw, Photoshop, and designing in-browser, there’s room for all workflows :)

        The front end designer in my team has been championing in browser design. Shame that Sketch can't be in our team's process because of that. Macaw is the closest, still waiting for some of the bugs to be ironed out.

        We mostly do mobile first, but if desktop has the complicated layout, we work down from there.
