Kidraw

Kidraw is a library to programmatically build Kicad schematic and footprint libraries. It was created out of frustration with Kicad's inconsistent built-in libraries, and the tedium of building cookie cutter parts in the library editors.

Questions

What parts does the Example use?

10 parts, built around the STM32F042K6T6. 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 Example KiCad files?

From the danderson/kidraw repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is example/example.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Example 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).
