    So I just downloaded and installed KiCad on my linux machine. I am wondering how I can add new components to the component list. I am specifically looking for a arduino nano component. Is there some kind of repository for components in KiCad?

      @dbemowsk I recently started with kicad too. A good starting point is here: https://github.com/mysensors-kicad/part_management

        Welcome to the wonderful land of kicad :)

        As already mentioned, we have a kicad parts library on git hub, which we use for the mysensors components. There are setup instructions as well, so you can get started.

        I think we already have a nano in our repository (I'm not near my computer at the moment so can't check).
