Welcome to the Kicad-Library Repository

This repository is separated into three folders, named library, template and modules.

  1. library contains the symbols for making schematics.
  2. template contains project templates from where you can start off, as well as the fp-lib-tables, which are a list specifying where to find each footprint library. These are the other repositories ending in ".pretty".
  3. modules includes the 3D drawing of footprints in the subdirectory "packages3d"

Before you start making your symbols and 3D models which can included in KiCad-Library repository, you have to be familiar with the content of two documents, also available as files in the repository:

  1. KiCad Library Convention which is a set of rules and guidelines you should take into account when creating Your work.
  2. How To Contribute to know what steps should be taken to properly prepare a Pull Request, which will be dealt with by one of the librarians.
