WASHINGTON, March 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Sympli (https://sympli.io/), a leader in design collaboration and handoff tools, today announced an update to Versions, a Sympli feature that provides an end-to-end, Git-based version control solution for design files. The new Sympli Versions operates approximately twice as fast compared to the previous release and includes a simplified user interface (UI), which enable designers to work more efficiently and collaboratively on Sketch files together.

Key Points: 
  • "Today's product-centric teams need tools like Sympli Versions that are built with both DesignOps and DevOps processes in mind so designers can maximize their velocity and work together more efficiently, collaboratively and iteratively."
  • The new Versions fuels the potential for even greater design team velocity with the following enhancements:
    Approximately double the application speed: The native macOS Versions application has been re-engineered to operate faster by optimizing and caching Git data on the application back end.
  • More intuitive user interface design: The new Versions feature follows the latest macOS UI guidelines for a familiar look-and-feel that supports a seamless workflow across design tools.
  • Simply Versions was launched in 2018 as an end-to-end "GitHub for design files," helping improve the efficiency of the design process, increase team transparency and fuel more collaboration between design and developer teams.

The project will provide safety improvements, increase freight mobility, enhance hurricane evacuation capability, and ease daily and seasonal congestion by adding main lanes, improving the operation of existing interchanges, and upgrading safety standards along a 90.4-mile segment of the corridor.

Key Points: 
  • The project will provide safety improvements, increase freight mobility, enhance hurricane evacuation capability, and ease daily and seasonal congestion by adding main lanes, improving the operation of existing interchanges, and upgrading safety standards along a 90.4-mile segment of the corridor.
  • "The I-45 corridor is an integral part of a network that moves massive freight volumes, supporting the Texas economy and international commerce, so mobility is crucial," said George Nash, CEO, Atkins North America.
  • The corridor provides primary access for freight movement between the two markets, including important seaports in Houston and Galveston and major inland ports in Dallas and Fort Worth.
  • The enhanced configuration this project will deliver should make the corridor even more attractive to cutting-edge freight movement.
