Description

Kicad is an open source (GPL) software for the creation of electronic schematic diagrams and printed circuit board artwork.

Designed and written by Jean-Pierre Charras, a researcher at LIS (Laboratoire des Images et des Signaux) and a teacher in IUT de Saint Martin d'Heres (France), in the field of electrical engineering and image processing.

Kicad is a set of four softwares and a project manager:

\* Eeschema: Schematic entry.
\* Pcbnew: Board editor.
\* Gerbview: GERBER viewer (photoplotter documents).
\* Cvpcb: footprint selector for components used in the circuit design.
\* Kicad: project manager.

Message after installing

If you plan to create 3D shapes for Printed board modules,
install the 3D modeler wings3D (port graphics/wings).

Pcbnew uses the exported files in wrml (.wrl) format from
wings3d (not the native .wings format).

Libraries are now available in separate packages: please
see cad/kicad-library-* .
