Script your way to circuit boards with CircuitPainter

A workshop from EMF 2024 by Matthew Mets

On Friday May 31, 2024 at in Workshop 6 (Hardware Hacking)

Inspired by the simplified drawing language of Processing, Circuit Painter provides a scripting environment for designing PCBs using basic geometric shapes such as lines, arcs, and polygons. Circuit painter works as a front end / wrapper for KiCad's pcbnew. In this workshop, we will explore the world of generative circuit board design using Circuit Painter and KiCad.

Attendees should bring a laptop, loaded with KiCad 7 or 8. Linux, Windows, and macOS should be ok.

Limited to 15 participants.

To participate, please sign up at the Hardware Hacking Area (Workshop 6 tent) -- there is a sign up sheet there.
