Blog post about my Twitter discussion with @alexandrosM where we had ChatGPT/GPT4 create electronic designs using SKiDL.


> You can output a schematic I've been working on a branch of SKiDL that outputs schematics that can be directly opened using KiCad's EESCHEMA. That will allow some capabilities SVG figures don't allow.


I'd like to see documentation on your workflow. You can also post it on https://github.com/devbisme/skidl/discussions.

There is a generate_pcb() function in SKiDL that will output a kicad_pcb file that can be directly opened using PCBNEW (no need to generate the intermediate netlist file). That function uses HierPlace to group the parts based on their hierarchical organization. That would be a good place to inject some autoplacement if you get it figured out.
