Overview
The BC848 is a bipolar made by TDD in a SOT-23 package with 3 pins. SOT-23 Bipolar (BJT) ROHS.
PCBKit's library has its KiCad symbol (Transistor_BJT:BC848, from KiCad's library) and its footprint (Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-23, from KiCad's library), ready for a KiCad board. 3,000 are in stock at JLCPCB (part C55488513). 68 open-source boards in 59 repositories on GitHub use it.

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the BC848?
Yes. The symbol is Transistor_BJT:BC848 and the footprint Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-23, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.
What package is the BC848?
SOT-23, with 3 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.
Where can I order the BC848?
JLCPCB lists it as part C55488513, with 3,000 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.
What can replace the BC848?
Parts like it in the library: the MMBT3904 by hongjiacheng, the S8050 by hongjiacheng, the SS8050 by hongjiacheng and the MMBT5551 by hongjiacheng. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
Which open-source boards use the BC848?
68 boards in 59 repositories on GitHub; the most starred are listed on this page, with their KiCad files.
