Questions
How big is the LightFlicker PCB?
It measures 40.6 × 34.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the LightFlicker use?
10 parts, built around the LM317AT. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the LightFlicker KiCad files?
From the coolhatguy/LightFlicker repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is LightFlicker.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the LightFlicker design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the Apache-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
