From the project
KiCon 2026 workshop: KiCad 10 Professional Workflows — staged course files for the Acme USB Hub design
These are the files for the one-day workshop KiCad 10 Professional Workflows. The book is one level up on this drive, and the pre-class checklist is Appendix D of the book.
Copy this folder to your hard disk before the class. Put it in a path with no spaces. Session 8 writes scripts, and a space in the path breaks them.
Each session starts from its own folder. A stage is the finished design without the work of that session, and without the work of every later session. So stage N+1 is stage N plus the work of session N.
