From a tech perspective what’s the reason the Windows version of this is so allusive? Are there OS hooks that are so powerful on Mac that make a parallel development for windows an insurmountable task?

- tootie 8y agoI think it's just market demand. They have finite capacity to develop and they get more returns by investing in OSX than expanding to Windows. There's always Zeplin for sharing designs to Windows users.
- futurix 8y agoSketch heavily uses macOS specific APIs for drawing, hardware acceleration, widgets, etc - I'd imagine Windows version would be a nearly complete rewrite with much higher subsequent development costs.
- vitaflo 8y agoWhich is interesting because Adobe XD also heavily uses MacOS specific API's and had to do a complete rewrite to support Windows. But Adobe has the manpower to do that.
- zozbot123 8y agoAllusive? I think you mean illusive, or something.
- kgwgk 8y agoElusive, maybe.
