A lightweight, portable parametric CAD application for electrical control panel layout design and documentation.
Visit PanelMaster.app.

Features:

• Design electrical control panels across multiple mounting surfaces
• Parametric constraints and real-world dimensions
• Position, align, duplicate, and nest components
• Quickly modify existing designs as requirements change
• Replace entire panels with automatic dimension adjustment
• Create technical documentation and reusable title blocks
• Export panel cutouts to DXF
• Export drawings to SVG
• Built-in component library
• Documentation and help

• Make sure python, gcc, and make are installed
• Install raylib (preferably static). See the official raylib build guide for installation instructions.
• Run make to build PanelMaster

PanelMaster is built using the MSYS2 MinGW-w64 environment.

• Install MSYS2
• Update the system by running pacman -Syu, restarting the terminal when prompted, and running it again
• Install GCC running pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc
• Install Make running pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-make
• Download raylib 6.0 for MinGW-w64
• Copy the contents of lib and include into the corresponding directories under C:\msys64\mingw64
• Run make to build PanelMaster

This repository includes a small selection of components as examples. A larger component library, along with a precompiled Windows binary, is available on my Ko-fi.
