Circuit Board design tool development. Kicad is a Free/Libre Open Source
|

Software Tool which runs on GNU/Linux, Windows and Apple OS X. It is

license. The objective is to help enhance Kicad in such a way that it
|
|
|
becomes an efficient tool for PCB design which people can use to share
|
|
|
their design information without compromising productivity. We think
|
|
|
that Kicad can do to PCB design what the gcc compiler did to software:
|
|
|
ensure there are no artificial barriers to sharing so that design and
|
|
|
development knowledge can flow more freely. This contribution is part of
|
|

our efforts in [Open Source

Hardware](OSHW).
