a company just contacted me after receiving my CV, they sent me a .sketch file to make into a website. I don't have a fucking MAC. WTF

    yup, uninstalling right now :D

    They told me to use either marvel, avocode, zeplin or invision. Does any of these have a way of importing a .sketch file without the need of the sketch app itself?

    tried zepelin with figma, imported the sketch file into figma and it's partly corrupted I think, because there is no text visible. Or I just can't use it

    @oudalally I do have glasses and a funky looking patchy beard :D

    But in all seriousness, that's weird for them to not send normal file formats

    @oudalally So you had experience with this zune app/infrastructure? I never saw it before you mentioned it.

    P.S. managed to get it working. theres this app called photopea that can import .sketch files. But i used "figma" with a zeplin exporter, only needed to download like 5 fonts for it to work correctly. then managed to import it into zeplin.

    You can use Figma to open sketch files on Windows. It saved my life once. https://www.figma.com

    You could have a virtual machine with OSX ready for situations like these.

    @Gogloglo don't you need a mac to burn another mac / drive?

    Avocode should work. Take advantage of their 10 days free trial and 10 minute mail.
