Plugin works best with Kicad 6 and commit a7fe16f So git clone the repository and git checkout a7fe16f Install kicad 6, install the plugin in the plugin directory by copying the python file. Generate the json file with one of the notebooks and import the generated json file with the plugin.

How to create a JSON file？ Can you provide a JSON instance file?

After creating the virtual environment, activate it. On windows activate.bat and activate are in /venv/Scripts/ Run jupyter notebook Click on one of the *.ipynb files. Click run all cells. It should generate a json. I renamed one to txt below so you can rename is to json. coils_12.txt
