What is Fritzing?
Fritzing is an open-source hardware initiative that makes electronics accessible as creative material for anyone. It is open-source EDA (Electronic Design Automation) software for people who are not engineers, a perfect tool for designers, inventors, hobbyists and educators to create a prototype or even make PCBs. Apart from being a software tool, it’s also a community, and a services provider in the spirit of Processing and Arduino, fostering a creative ecosystem that allows users to document their prototypes, share them with others, and teach electronics in classrooms.

Hello,
Could we get Fritzing parts for the WIO Terminal, and the Multigas V2 board ?
Been developing a series of Air Quality monitors based on these parts and need to publish a Fritzing breadboard diagram.
Thanks,
Iam
Wish I had this 2 years ago 🙂
We agree this comes late. We’ll keep updating on making more Fritzing Parts available. Are there any specific Seeed Products that you’d love to have Fritzing parts at the moment? Thank you!
