had the iPad in mind when they were creating the Affinity Suite. The Affinity software line was originally developed with the idea of creating lightweight apps that pack a robust set of features for professionals. Luckily, Affinity has a great forum for questions and their Vimeo channel is chalk full of explainer videos. So far I have really enjoyed the experience and I’m looking to learn more about how to best use the Affinity software and what the differences are between them and their Adobe counterparts.

Determined to not use Adobe on this laptop, I installed and have been using Affinity Photo and Designer for creating any assets that I need for web layouts. I recently purchased a Mac laptop for work so I could use Sketch which only runs on the Mac OS. Interested Window users can sign up to download the beta version of Designer and see what all the much-deserved hype is about when it comes to Affinity software. Right before Photo’s birthday, Affinity officially announced the kick off of their Windows beta testing for Affinity Designer. Make sure you download them and try them out!
