And so it goes, good bye duplicate files. In the past we've had to structure project files with "WIP" and "Final" + syncing new additions between designers. This looks promising. Excited to try it out. Good work!
David Plakon
Very, very awesome, and beautifully designed. Well done! Excited to give it a spin.
Lisa Dziuba

I'm already seeing teams kill it with Abstract on their tool belt. What a great product.

For about 7 months I've been using Abstract and can say that it's fundamentally changed how I feel about my process. I no longer stress about versioning. Even if I forget to save my work, it's still there. It's core purpose is to give designers version control, but they've already made it much more than that and are making headway on improving more than just file storage. I for one, am looking forward to how this incredible team evolves Abstract.

Nice idea. But I didn't get how you guys merge different version from different files into one?
Tom Moor
@outfoxer magic... and lots of code.
Anton Skorniakov
@tommoor Please explain in more details. How do deal with conflicts? Is there some visual way to resolve them? For example, Bob recolor some button to red and Mike recolored it to blue, what color will have the button after merge? And how do you identify objects/layers? By name? What if someone has renamed some layer and this name matched another layer with the same type? The layer names are not unique.

Haha, I love the animated gif on the footer. Is that free to use from somewhere or was it custom made?
Tom Moor
@erickbarron86 custom, it took Tim 3 or 4 weeks of solid grafting to get that pixel perfect.
