diy-layout-creator is an open-source, cross-platform application for designing electronic circuit layouts, schematics, and wiring diagrams. It supports stripboard, perfboard, printed circuit boards, and point-to-point wiring. Its drag-and-drop interface allows users to arrange electronic components and connections using an extensive component library. The software is particularly useful for guitar pedal builders, amplifier designers, and electronics hobbyists. It includes circuit analysis tools, guitar wiring analysis, and SPICE-compatible netlist generation. Users can generate bills of materials and export designs as images, PDFs, or Gerber files for fabrication. An integrated AI assistant provides circuit guidance and troubleshooting support. Cloud integration also enables users to discover, download, and share community projects.
