Questions
How big is the Grid devkit PCB?
It measures 32.7 × 99.7 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Grid devkit use?
167 parts, built around the RP2040, ESP32-S3, W25Q64JVSSIQ and BL1551B. 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 Grid devkit KiCad files?
From the RustyCircuit/grid-devkit repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Electrical/Design/grid-devkit/grid-devkit.kicad_pcb and its schematic Electrical/Design/grid-devkit/AUDIO.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Grid devkit design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
