Fab Electronics Library for KiCad
This library (should) cover all the electronics components found in the official fab inventory. Using this library should also make it easier to share KiCad project files between Mac, Windows and Linux systems.

Installation

Clone or download this repository.
Store it in a safe place such as ~/kicad/libraries or C:/kicad/libraries.
Run KiCad or open a KiCad .pro file.
Go to "Preferences / Manage Symbol Libraries" and add fab.lib as symbol library.
Go to "Preferences / Manage Footprint Libraries" and add fab.pretty as footprint library.
