Questions

How big is the Avr promicro PCB?

It measures 100 × 30 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Avr promicro use?

10 parts, built around the ATMEGA328-PU. 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 Avr promicro KiCad files?

From the peej/avr-promicro-programmer repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is avr-promicro.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Avr promicro design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask peej before reusing the design.
