What do you think? …

Amazing. This is a game changer. Can I export the page to HTML?
Hayes Metzger
@asafmoses Hey Asaf. Glad you're enjoying it! Currently we do not have HTML export, but we're happy to host your designs for free. We'll serve it insanely fast and make sure it's stable and secure. Exporting is something we have explored though and may look at in the future.

@asafmoses @hayesmetzger Hi Hayes, curious if there have been any updates on the HTML export functionality since your PH launch?
Kevin Gauthier
Went through a demo at SXSW and came super impressed with the careful thoughts that went into designing the UI and the overall experience. Talented folks here, will keep an eye out.
Asaf Moses
And. Can I import Sketch/P.Shop templates?
Sanchit Sharma
@asafmoses I was about to ask the same thing.
Hayes Metzger
@sanchitsh @asafmoses Not currently, but great feature request.
Alex Weber
Just tried this out and I love it! Nice work you guys! I am hooked :-)
Hayes Metzger
@lecanardmalade Glad you're loving it, Alex. Looking forward to what you create!

Looks interesting but I wouldn't rely on my browser to design something, even if "Design in the browser" is super trendy. Will there be a desktop app? Is it possible to export to HTML/CSS/JS? I'd gladly use this for rapid prototyping. I know for sure none of my clients would accept to be hosted by a "design service."
Hayes Metzger
@syswarren Hey Julie. Your skepticism is totally warranted! It is only just recently we think that you can deliver desktop-quality interactions in the browser. We do have some pretty bulletproof hosting (we've been tested by some of the biggest companies in the world), but we'll look at code export in the future.

I think this particular product could definitely find its place in the market of professional design tools, the list includes a dominated player, webflow, but also webydo, macaw and the dramatic / political selection of adobe products (reflow edge (discontinued), purchased Brackets then made XD, seems a bit disorganized). Even Invision is trying to get into the game with their Sketch and PSD integration. In my opinion there are distinct differences between each of them that separates this market into two categories, prototyping tools VS code assistance tools (i.e. seeing your code, or pressing shortcodes to inject java, css, html, what Brandcast like Webflow and Webydo are attempting to do). But as a community lets remember ---> one of the largest hair twisting problems that agencies and design studios face is the PSD / Sketch / Napkin Drawing to HTML stage. Lastly lets remember John Maeda's recent statement: "If You Want to Survive in Design, You Better Learn to Code" (please Google this) --> well maybe with Brandcast and this new market of products were getting close John.

Seems similar to WebFlow in a way, WYSIWYG design. What differentiates Brandcast from others in the field?
Hayes Metzger
@androidlove Great question. Webflow has created a cool product and community. We wanted to make a truly collaborative and creative tool for professional designers of all types to be able to create for the web and support their non-technical teams. Our approach is a little different than theirs. We have a great free offering including hosting and using a custom domain so you can get started and compare for yourself.
