Comment on Melting KiCadparent

Comments

I use Horizon EDA and it's really nice.

What drew me to Horizon EDA was that it has interactive router (based on code from KiCad) with push and shove functions. It also has straightforward interface, and it's fast. Recently ODB++ support was added, probably the first (and only?) for open source EDA.

I wish it had ready to use footprints (other than basic resistors, caps, etc), especially from LCSC catalogue.

Me too. Much much much better than KiCAD which is quite unusable IMO and the devs were actively hostile to UX improvements.

I haven't tried LibrePCB though.
