What is PSD
PSD is an acronym for Photoshop Document and is a file extension that typically contains images, layers, and effects that have been designed using Adobe Photoshop software. PSD files can be opened in older versions of Photoshop as well as newer Creative Cloud versions. They allow for greater flexibility when editing and provide more accurate results when exporting to other formats. Additionally, they store image data in a way that makes it easy to compress without sacrificing quality.
What is Sketch
Sketch is a vector drawing and animation software application first developed by the Dutch company Bohemian Coding. It is one of the most popular applications in its category and has been compared to Adobe Photoshop, which is also a popular image editor. As of September 2017, it had been downloaded over 5 million times from the Mac App Store alone.

A WordPress theme is a collection of files that determine the look and feel of a WordPress site. Themes include code and files that control the overall design of the site, header image, background, fonts, colors, and more. WordPress themes are created by developers and designers to make it easy for users to change how their site looks without knowing any code.Converting PSD to WordPress Theme
