That's super cool! Not needing to install is great for accessibility for new users, and I think this would also be cool if it can be embedded into other websites as a viewer (like imagine opening up a Git repo with KiCAD files in it and being able to explore them in an integrated viewer)

That's a neat idea! To be honest my brain is overflowing with ideas too, right now I want to just bring all the apps one. Or... Actually just bring the layout editor up first :) I'm trying hard to live in the present...

Have you checked out circuitsnips and kicanvas?

ViktorEE · 16 days ago

I did check kicanvas, but I didn't know about circutsnips, I had the same idea for years! It's great!

I'm working on porting KiCad to the browser. It's a lot of sweat and tears, multithreading issues and some more sweat. I've updated a port of WxWidgets and now I support all the features KiCad needs with ~200 tests.

Right now I have a build that loads in the browser, but I really want to have "multithreading" which means workers in the web. One can use asyncify with emscripten to translate blocking C++ to WASM, but that transition is not perfect, right now I'm debugging a bug where there's a race condition that halts all execution and the main thread runs in an infinite loop waiting for the workers to stand up. I guess I'll have a few of those ahead.

The main goal is to 1. just have fun 2. use yjs as a collab backend so multiple people can edit the same PCB. This will probably work with pcbnew, KiCad's layout editor, since it has a plugin system and AFAIK I can do the sync layer there. For the rest ( schematic, component editor etc. ) I'll have to figure out something.. KiCad does not sync automatically if you modify a file, I'll have to do some lifting there.

Anyway, it's a lot of fun, I really want this thing to exist, I'm hoping that I won't run into a "wellll, this is just not going to work" kind of issue in the end.
