Just curious to know what those boxes are that Sketch checks for you.

Right now, Sketch seems to be the prevailing product in the overall design community. But in my opinion it's only because it was the first to really get such a strong hold on its niche, and a new product will take its place at the top soon.

What turns me off to it as a person who missed its initial spread is that the vanilla Sketch experience leaves a lot to be desired. It's cool that it supports plugins to extend its functionality, but I don't like how it's expected that you just have to get a bunch of plugins to reach parity with the vanilla features of its competitors. (The Mac only support is also a negative too, but it's not that big of a deal for me.)

No, thank you for writing these! I haven't read your book on interpreters yet, but your game programming patterns book helped me a ton when I was building my own game engine.
