Introduction

This page includes Sketch kits, tools, templates, and various extensions that have been created to help you get up and running.

To use the Sketch libraries you’ll find here, you need the most recent version of Sketch installed. If you’re new to the design kit, visit the Design kits page.

Data visualization Sketch file

The Data visualization Sketch file includes basic and complex chart assets, along with usage guidance, theming guidance, palettes, and sample layouts. You’ll find even more guidance and assets in this file than on the site.
