What parts does the Placed use?
76 parts. 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 Placed KiCad files?
From the parakeyt/parakeyt-docs repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is example-boards/alice/output/placed.kicad_pcb and its schematic reference-design/reference-design.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Placed design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask parakeyt before reusing the design.
