</h2>
<div class="entry-content">
<p>It's been nearly half a year since the big 1.0 release.
This release only has a few user-facing changes:</p>
<ul>
<li>A KiCad PCB file can now be created directly using the <code>generate_pcb()</code> function instead of outputing a netlist that's imported into PCBNEW.</li>
<li>Part templates can be created with the <code>PartTmplt()</code> class instead of using <code>Part()</code> with the <code>dest=TEMPLATE</code> option.</li>
</ul>
<p>That doesn't seem like much - and it's not - but I've also been doing some refactoring and fixing
so that features I said <em>would</em> work actually <em>do</em> work.
(Finding such problems was one of the stated reasons for starting the <a href="https://github.com/devbisme/circuitsascode">circuitsascode</a> companion repository.)</p>
<p>I also rebuilt the website, switching from Jekyll to Pelican and finally getting the Sphinx-generated API
documentation to look reasonable.</p>
<p>Some days you're making the pies, others you're cleaning the grease trap...</p>
