Questions
How big is the Getting started PCB?
It measures 67.5 × 53.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Getting started use?
3 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 Getting started KiCad files?
From the Yash-G-2006/exampleproject repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is getting_started/getting_started.kicad_pcb and its schematic getting_started/getting_started.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Getting started design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Yash-G-2006 before reusing the design.
