From the project

I created this because I didn't have the patience to configure Git.

A printed circuit board (PCB) project developed in KiCad.

A cat-themed PCB designed for the Hack Club Solder workshop. The board features LEDs, resistors, push buttons, a battery holder, a potentiometer, a capacitor, and a motor/pinheader connector — a hands-on beginner-friendly circuit for learning PCB design and soldering.
