Are there any use cases where Fritzing is more suitable than KiCad?
- miniwark 5y ago- prototyping on a virtual breadboard - quick and dirty Arduino / Adafruit / SeedStudio boards based projects - first time software for electronic learners or in a classroom The breadboard view is the selling point of Fritzing. Kikad, LibrePCB or EasyEDA do not really offer this feature. That said, calling Ftrizing an EDA is exaggerated but it has his usage when a full featured EDA is not needed (yet). Fritzing is not in the same team, it belong more to the team of DIY Layout Creator and VeroRoute.
- II2II 5y agoMaking illustrations of breadboard layouts. For actual PCB layouts though, I would put more trust into KiCAD.
- linker3000 5y agoWhen you want to document and get a picture representation of a breadboard lashup and that's as far as you are going to take things.
