KiCad Library Conventions: https://klc.kicad.org/ Eventually almost every electronics hobbyist will have to design their own footprints and symbols for some parts, because ready-made ones aren't available. Once you learn how to do it, creating a simple but working part library won't take more than couple of minutes. I avoided creating custom part libraries for way too long. I have spent hours of my life trying to find something that I could have created myself in fraction of that time. Now I am used to creating them and often I don't even try to find ready-made ones unless the manufacturer has published their version. 0:00 Problem to be solved 0:40 PCBWAY AD 1:23 Symbol Editor and Footprint Editor 2:25 KiCad Library Conventions 2:55 Creating Symbol 5:37 Creating Footprint 9:13 Symbol's Default Footprint 9:34 Testing If you liked the video, please show it and hit the Like-button!
