Abstract is your team's version-controlled source of truth for all design work. We believe that design shouldn't be locked away in folders and proprietary code. Design work should be accessible. Decisions should be captured in a single place. And teams should be empowered to work together, not silo’d. Our approach paves the way for designers to spend less time searching for files and other“workaround work,” and more time on craftsmanship and innovation.
