Hey everyone πŸ‘‹ After countless hours and iterations, we are finally happy to announce that Anima 3.0 is here πŸŽ‰ Anima 3.0 is the best way to create High-Fidelity Prototypes in Sketch. In 3.0 we focused on 3 things: * Plugin Convenience * Team Collaboration * Better Pricing Model β€” Plugin Convenience - We’ve consolidated the different products into one product and broken up the workflow into 4 steps: 1. Layout - Make your design responsive using the most powerful layout engine for Sketch. 2. Prototype - Create High-Fidelity Prototype by adding real micro-interactions, animations, input fields, videos and more. 3. Export - Sync prototype to a project and Export HTML. 4. Collaborate - Share your Prototype with your team and gather feedback, all in one place. β€” Team Collaboration - A new collaboration hub now makes it easy to create teams and share projects. 1. Drafts - Create drafts only you can see before syncing to your project and sharing with your team. 2. Workspaces - With new features such as Workspaces, Projects and Teams, it's easy to collaborate with your team. 3. Personal/Team - Attach Projects to your Personal workspace, or your team workspace. β€” Better Pricing Model - Trial for Export Code and a new plan for prototyping. 1. Trial - Starting today we are offering 14 days free trial to all features, including Export Code. 2. Prototype Plan - A new plan called "Prototype" at half the cost of "Pro" allows to create unlimited High-Fidelity Prototypes.

@orarbel isn't this pointless in sketch 52?

@orarbel @kerishan Hi Ale, Great question! Sketch Prototype is great, but it has its limitations. With Anima, you can add micro-interactions, videos, real input fields, and much more. Check this prototype for example: https://music-player-sample.anim... Created only with Sketch + Anima :)

Can't wait to play with this! πŸ’―

Nice work! Excited to see Anima continues to bridge the gaps between design, prototype, and dev!

I think every designer should be using this. I get why Wordpress and Webflow are important, but this product is really great. You can go straight from Sketch to AWS in 5 minutes. You have to build 3 screen sizes, but that's to be expected from Sketch anyway, you just join them within the Anima app. You can automatically stack your objects within Sketch, so it's easy to resize the screens. You can also do animations right inside Sketch. I never animated using keyframes, and it was super easy. Their support is great, and they get right back to you on intercom from within the app. I've been paying for it for over a year.

Great product, I really hope they get their support in line.

Pros:

Great product, easy to use.

Cons:

Their support is non-existant. Tried to contact them multiple times concerning billing issues (they billed me more) no answers yet.

Hi Raphael, I apologize for this issue. Please email me at or@animaapp.com and we'll resolve this asap.

Does this mean I will know have to pay for the auto-layout features? Those features have been a boon for introducing folks to your larger product offering. It would be a shame if you were to suddenly start charging people for it, and it certainly would not be more convenient for any of your users. I sincerely hope I am mistaken.

@mbrunygroth Hi Michael, sorry for the confusion. Auto-Layout in Anima 3.0 is still definitely free for unlimited projects.

It can be so painful to use anima because so bugy it can be. Plus the export option is really shitty because for like on single page it gives you a HTML code that has about 2000 lines... I'm a web developper and I can tell you that the code looks shitty too because so unmodular it is. Disappointment.

this plugin does not add any value each month, so instead of useless payment I would like to see sketch style payment where I pay once to use and then simply purchase the upgrade when available

Shalom! I'm a little confused about how the app works. Does the app generate automatic code after I entered my design or do I need actual developers to write the code for me in the app?
