We’re kicking off the year with four new features — starting with previews!

With previews, you can choose the pages and prototypes you want to share with clients, while keeping the rest of your document private. 🧵↓

Great with an MCP server

We shipped our MCP server back in October last year. Here are five (of many!) things we’ve been using it for 🧵 ↓

(We’re big Claude Code fans here, but you can use any MCP-compatible client)

My latest @sketch plugin in now available.

Generate and insert SVG QR codes. No predatory subscription fees. They will work forever.

Some fantastic work from the team and some brilliant ✨features and improvements ✨ this year! On to the next one! 🥂

[Sketch @sketch]

2025 was our biggest year yet. 3 major releases. Over 250 new features, improvements and fixes. Stack layout. Frames. Automatic concentric corners. Progressive blurs. Glass. A major redesign. MCP server. And so much more.

And now that you know about the shiny new Sketch version, how about a guided tour?

Enjoy folks!

A huge ton of work has gone into this update and having used it over the past months, it is *really* nice. Modern fresh and some very nice tweaks and improvements. Huge well done to all my awesome colleagues 💛

Check it out! 👀

[Sketch @sketch]

We’ve got a biiiig update for you. A complete redesign of Sketch. Maybe you’ve tried the beta, maybe you’ve seen the teasers. Now you can update and try it all for real.

And there’s more! 🧵 ↓

[Sketch @sketch]

Yes, the new toolbar has The Glass. It’s got some other neat tricks, too. We’ll save those details for the big reveal.

This redesign is so nearly ready, beta dropping very soon.

[Sketch @sketch]

How it started: “Hey @MarceloMarfil, can you draw some new icons for the Tahoe update?”

How it’s going: There are 775 new icons in Sketch now.

We’re incredibly close to sharing this update with you! Thanks for your patience while we sweat the small stuff.

[Keir @Keir]

The team's been working hard on some s̶h̶i̶n̶y̶ glassy new features for you!

🆕 Our next major update is here — and it’s got glass in it.

Yep, that glass. Non-solid, lowercase-G glass. It works right out of the box (as all glass should?) but you can also tweak every parameter. It’s a lot of fun.

And that’s not all! ↓

[Keir @Keir]

I haven’t got to making a nice lil website for these (yet), but I wanted to get them out for y'all so, I hope you enjoy Calyx! ✨

Y’all still commit crimes against corner radius far too often for my liking... 💅

Therefore, meet concentric corners in @sketch. Thank us. 🫶
