Hi everyone! I’m developing CircuitCraft, an open-source desktop application for drawing circuits, running simulations and designing simple PCBs. The application is written in Rust, with ngspice providing the simulation engine. The current version includes: - Schematic editing and hierarchical circuits. - AC, DC and transient simulations with waveform plots. - PCB routing, a 3D preview and Gerber/Excellon export. It’s still an early project: the component library is limited, the autorouter can leave connections unrouted, and the 3D component shapes are approximate. Source code, screenshots and getting-started guide: > **[GitHub - Berserk-hub150/CircuitCraft](https://github.com/Berserk-hub150/CircuitCraft)** > > Contribute to Berserk-hub150/CircuitCraft development by creating an account on GitHub. Windows release: > **[Release CircuitCraft 0.3.0 — routing, hierarchy and PCB 3D ·...](https://github.com/Berserk-hub150/CircuitCraft/releases/tag/v0.3.0)** > > CircuitCraft 0.3.0 > Adds three engineering workflows to the existing Rust desktop editor: > > Bounded two-layer A\* autorouter with exact pad endpoints, copper/edge clearance, plated vias, preservation ... I’d appreciate feedback on the editing workflow and ngspice integration. Small example circuits that reveal bugs would also be very helpful!
