Group name may contain zero or one pair of square brackets
Square brackets [ ] are used for adding CSS rules to specific parts of your design. Read more about them here.
Group name must contain one pair of curly brackets
Curly brackets { } are used within the Sketch2React framework to define component name i.e. {container}. Incorrect number of square brackets will cause parsing errors.
Text name must contain one pair of curly brackets
Curly brackets { } are used within the Sketch2React framework to define component name i.e. {text}. One neat trick is that if you convert your Sketch2React components to symbols, you don't need to follow our naming convention for the parent, in above case we have called the symbol H1.
Text name may contain zero or one pair of square brackets
Square brackets are used within the Sketch2React framework to define css-classes i.e. [css-class-name1 css-class-name2].
Artboards must contain at least one text layer named {externalasset.css}
{externalasset.css} is used within the Sketch2React framework to target external CSS assets (fonts, local CSS-files, animation libraries etc.) that should be included in the generated output. Make sure to copy them to all your pages where you have external dependencies.
