In this repo I am practicing KICAD. Created an ESP32 DevKit V1 module and a PCB footprint. I designed a circuit around this ESP32 consisting of six lamps, four switches, and two power jacks and added a voltage regulater to Vin to maintain a supply of +5V. (This project was originally made of two switches and 1 power jack and was named homeWork2.)

select the copper fill and edit its properties, change the pad connection from ' Relief to PTH' to 'Thermal Relief', Click 'OK' then press 'B' to repour the copper fill. Delete redundant ground traces.
