    <p>Kicad is a suite of programs for the creation of printed circuit boards. It includes a schematic editor,
    a PCB layout tool, support tools and a 3D viewer to display a finished &amp; fully populated PCB. Kicad
    is made up of 5 main components: * kicad - project manager * eeschema - schematic editor * pcbnew - PCB
    editor * gerbview - GERBER viewer * cvpcb - footprint selector for components Libraries: * Both eeschema
    and pcbnew have library managers and editors for their components and footprints * You can easily create,
    edit, delete and exchange library items * Documentation files can be associated with components, footprints
    and key words, allowing a fast search by function * Very large libraries are available for schematic
    components and footprints * Most components have corresponding 3D models</p>
