10 Part Tutorial On Designing/Building A PCB (Using FOSS)

Quote
The KiCad team released a "Stable" version of KiCad late last year, the 4.0 release. As of the publishing of this post, the current version of KiCad is 4.0.2 and this is what is what we use for all contemporary Contextual Electronics work. This had some drastically different methods of library management and workflow from the 2013 release of KiCad, which is the version the original Getting To Blinky was based on.

We decided to re-do the Getting To Blinky series and will be pointing anyone landing on the old videos to these more recent videos. While the GTB series has been viewed 10's of thousands of times, the software being out of sync has started to affect learners' ability to really get going with KiCad and building electronics.

Very timely, as I was just getting into this subject in trying to create my game pad.  I figured that someone else might have use for it.
