EasyEDA ScratchEasyEDA is recommended for electronics hobbyists, students, educators, startup engineers, and small businesses focused on rapid prototyping and cost-effective PCB design. It's also ideal for collaborative projects that benefit from cloud-based tools.
Based on our record, Scratch seems to be a lot more popular than EasyEDA. While we know about 578 links to Scratch, we've tracked only 44 mentions of EasyEDA. We are tracking product recommendations and mentions on various public social media platforms and blogs. They can help you identify which product is more popular and what people think of it.
As a hobbyist, I have had a good experience using EasyEDA [0]. It's free to use, with the caveat that you are pretty locked in to their PCB ordering service from China. However, pricing is crazy good, like <$50 total for 5 PCB's (although there will be tariffs). Regarding your mental model, it's more like a 2-step process. First, you draw the netlist, which is the electrical circuit diagram. It's this stage you... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

a bunch of pcb manfacturing places have their own layout software which may or may not suite your needs. E.g. JLCPCB is a very good board manufacturer (and cheap to boot), and their EasyEDA software looks sane. Digikey has SnapEDA etc. Source: over 3 years ago
It depends how good your electronics are or whether you're willing to invest time into learning PCB design. The capacitor's values can be found using an LCR meter, it will be a bit fiddly and you'll want to remove them from the flex PCB before testing. LCR meter can be picked up cheap on Amazon. Looks like a relatively simple circuit too, so you can trace it out quite easily. Then just measure up the PCB and you... Source: over 3 years ago
There are lots of free tools out there, but I would suggest EasyEDA. Backed by JLCPCB, one of the best PCB makers in China, you could design your schematic and PCB and then have JLCPCB make the circuit boards for you. Everything is online and free, with lots of support. Source: over 3 years ago
What I wonder is: why has nobody noticed that code editors lack a concept of 0? When you're writing code, you can express any concept except that of an unfilled hole. We've rearranged every part of the coding process in a twisted-up way, all for the lack of a way to express lack. If you want to be more clear about what I mean, look to tools which can express holes like https://scratch.mit.edu and https://hazel.org. - Source: Hacker News / 9 days ago

The average house in the UK now has 1.3 laptops. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/apr/09/online-all-the-time-average-british-household-owns-74-internet-devices A windows laptop from today is vastly easier to code on that a C64 or whatever. Most houses would have an internet connection as well so they can get to all sorts of things. A Raspberry Pi is probably something richer kids get to play with.

My 2c from lots of remote math tutoring, and one coding-for-fun middle school student: - student motivation is everything. Hard to motivate thru a screen and with cameras off. Hard to keep them engaged or recognize if they're engaged. Less of an issue with adult students. - reduce friction for students as much as possible. Ideally one web tool, zero installs. Prefer tools with few failure modes, and have fallbacks... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
