Today I used Sketch for the first time and made an app screen by following a tutorial on Medium. Yes, just one screen. It took me over an hour. Overall it turned out as expected, but some details weren't great.

  1. I couldn't find the Bryant font, so I picked another one, and it really isn't as elegant as the tutorial's version
  2. Many things weren't aligned. I spent a long time adjusting them but never got them perfectly lined up. Maybe there are some tricks I haven't learned yet
  3. Today's date is highlighted with a white circular Rectangle
  4. When these two objects overlapped, the white circle always covered the date, and I couldn't find anything like a merge-layers option.
