fritzing version? #2

Open amchagas opened 4 months ago

amchagas commented 4 months ago

Hey, sorry to bother again...

I was looking into fritzing and seems their newer versions are now paid? The last non-paid version I could find was 0.9.6 from 2021, so I was wondering which version you used and if there was any specific reason to use fritzing? (genuinely curious, as there are so many different software for PCB development out there, I always like to hear what people think about each, and why they select one over the other)

No problem!

That's annoying, you used to be able to skip the payment. I'm using 0.9.10. It also used to be that every Sparkfun part would have a downloadable Fritzing file on its product page which made adding their connections to the PCB really easy. There was also a library for Adafruit parts. I think Sparkfun has now committed to Eagle so they stopped supporting Fritzing parts (maybe because it's not free). I originally started using it to make figures as every part had a nice breadboard view where you can make the circuit virtually. For PCBs, it's only good for relatively simple designs, but for that it's great!
