For those unfamiliar with KiCad and electronics, it is an electronics design tool. You need a tool like that to design PCBs (printed circuit boards) where components are later placed to build devices. For those familiar with electronics, but eyeing KiCad from a distance, it is a very capable tool which can be used to produce moderately complex designs. I have personally designed 4-layer boards with impedance-controlled differential pairs with it. While you might not want to use it to design a PC motherboard, well, let's just say that we don't all design PC motherboards. The upcoming KiCad conference (https://kicad-kicon.com/ https://kicad-kicon.com/) looks very interesting (my company, PartsBox https://partsbox.io/ https://partsbox.io/ is a sponsor) and the future for KiCad looks bright :-)
