Overview
Hackerspacemap is an open-source printed circuit board by hackwinkel, from the hackwinkel/2026DutchHackerspaceMap repository on GitHub, published under the BSD-3-Clause licence. It is a 2-layer board of 82.6 × 97.5 mm with 25 parts on 33 nets, routed with 334 tracks and 1 via.
It is built around the WS2812B. Its parts include 18 diodes, 6 capacitors and 1 IC.

Hardware/README.mdThis folder contains the schematic diagram and KiCAD source files for this project. You should be able to produce gerber files, which can be processed into actual PCBs by any board house
IMPORTANT NOTICE Please leave pin d9 of the ESP32C3 module disconnected. This is the boot mode selection pin, and connecting it to DO of the last WS281b will result in the ESP32 reliably booting into software upload mode - rendering the system non-functional. You can remove or cut the D9 pin from the module before soldering it onto the PCB or you can cut the trace leading to it from the last LED. If you want to use WS2812b based led strip as a backlight, then the DI pin of the led strip should be connected to the DO pin of the last LED - so either the PAD underneath the D9 pin of the ESP32 or the trace leading to it. THIS PROBLEM MAY BE FIXED IN NEW RELEASES OF THE HARDWARE DESIGN

Questions
How big is the Hackerspacemap PCB?
It measures 82.6 × 97.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Hackerspacemap use?
25 parts, built around the WS2812B. 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 Hackerspacemap KiCad files?
From the hackwinkel/2026DutchHackerspaceMap repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Hardware/hackerspacemap.kicad_pcb and its schematic Hardware/hackerspacemap.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Hackerspacemap design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the BSD-3-Clause licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
