Testing for wide gamut
Many new devices and displays support wide gamut colour spaces — colours can be purer and more vibrant than previously. The phrase “wide gamut”, is a comparison between a colour space that includes more of the visible spectrum than sRGB and other “standard gamut” colour spaces.

Conceptually, I like asset catalogs. It makes sense to group images and metadata together, with a visual way to edit it all in Xcode.
Creating SVGs with Processing
I’ve been experimenting with creating SVGs programmatically, which opens up a world of possibilities. It allows patterns, shapes, and compositions that would not be easy or possible by hand. The results can then be imported into Illustrator, Sketch or your design tool of choice, augmenting their features.
