awesome hackpad to do awesome stuff!
Finished making schematics and started actually designing the PCB (aligned components and started traces.) This was my first time using Kicad so there was a slight learning curve, but not as much as I expected. I decided not to use matrix wiring on the switches as it would only save 1 pin. Also took a while to figure out which symbols and footprints to use, but I think I got them right. Had to do some back-of-napkin math to make sure the board has enough current to power all my LEDS, which hopefully will look pretty cool in a ring around the hackpad!
