kicad-wakatime

kicad-wakatime is a WakaTime plugin for KiCAD 8.99.

Installation

On all platforms:

  1. Download the latest release of kicad-wakatime from the releases section. Click here for downloads.
  2. Enable the KiCAD API in KiCAD 8.99. (Settings -> Plugins -> Enable KiCAD API)
  3. Open kicad-wakatime and fill out the settings.
  4. Start designing!

If you know what you're doing, you can build kicad-wakatime from the main branch instead. This requires an up-to-date version of CMake and protoc.
The code in the main branch should be considered unstable, as some features may still be in progress between releases.
