Good stuff. Would it be possible to have the reverse?
Would be a huge time saver when taking Sketch files to After Effects for animation. AE reads layered PSD's but not sketch files, and there isn't any tool on the market that helps designers export Sketch designs to AE.
I thought your guys video was excellent all around. I think you should have it front and center on the home page and probably even on the '/convert-psd-to-sketch' page. Best of luck!

I'm guessing that the lack of detail on this is really an explanation for expectations of this. It probably doesn't work well for anything complex but, if it works halfway decently, this could be a boon for those trying to get out from under the dark Adobe umbrella.

What details do you expect? It's a PSD to Sketch converter, what else do you expect it to say? He could have filled it with a "gorgeous", "unique", "innovative" marketing keywords but it would still be a PSD To Sketch converter.
> It probably doesn't work well for anything complex but
I just tried converting a really big photoshop file and it worked pretty good, why don't you try it before making comments on it's functionality?
I'm sorry, it's my bad that I didn't post any details into comments.
The converter actually works pretty well even with large and complex designs. You should really try it out. There are still some features that we're working on.
Ugghhh, if you're using this, then you don't really grok Sketch. Sketch has all these wonderful tools for breaking up your design into reuseable components and playing with them like lego pieces. If you're doing a straight conversion from PSD to Sketch, you're missing all the things that make Sketch great.
When you're starting from scratch in Sketch it has a lot of great features that are worth exploring. But what about making the switch to Sketch from PS? Normally, you would have to recreate the whole design. Most people and especially bigger design teams don't have time for that. So this service is meant to save you all that time, convert your current design system and then you can play around with the design some more and add all the wicked funtions in Sketch anyway. And I'm sure others can think of more use cases.

I'm very excited to show you our new tool.
It's a free online PSD to Sketch Converter. If you're manually re-creating designs from Photoshop into Sketch, now you don't have to.
It converts named layers, layer groups, basic layer effects, layer masks, vector shapes, text layers and more.
Let me know your thoughts. I hope you will like it.
