Organization and Consistency in Sketch: Layout and Grid

When you are designing and utilizing all of the functionality that allows you to be consistent and organized, you have to use some sort of layout structure. There are various methods to structure your Sketch file: Rules, Grid, and Layout, and is really all for personal preference, but I will be teaching you the benefits of using the Layout feature in Sketch. You can access this feature by going to "view > canvas > layout settings". Here you will see a varying selection to chose from. You must denote a total width, if your layout is offset, and the number of columns you will want to have. I recommend having at least 12 for web (explain why) and 6 for mobile (explain why). You can toggle the view of your layout by "control + l".
