Hi Jamie,
I think this could be useful. But we're currently discussing what is the best possible approach for this.
Would it be better to integrate CircuitBee directly into your favourite tools, so you can just upload directly from them to the CircuitBee site. This would eliminate the need for library and symbol management on the site entirely, and would streamline the upload process.
The problem is that the upload process is different for each tools, Fritzing for example has separate files for each symbol as does gEDA, while Eagle, KiCAD and DesignSpark have libraries of symbols. These different approaches make it hard to make a good user experience for managing symbol libraries and schematics. We had thought it might be better to just upload directly from the users schematic capture program, either via script, or desktop app or direct integration.
Do you have any thoughts on this?
