KiCad Libraries

Templates:

In order to use the templates contained in this folder, you must add an environment variable called KICAD_PTEMPLATES. This will create a page in the Kicad template selector for "Portable Templates".

To add this in Linux, simply add these two lines to the .bashrc file
# Add an environment variable to add the GitHub KiCad templates
export KICAD_PTEMPLATES='path/to/github/directory'
