📄️ Essential Elements

There are some essential elements you'll need for almost every circuit you make, this doc gives a brief overview of each of them so you can jump right in and get started building electronics!

🗃️ Importing Modules and Chips

3 items

📄️ Automatic Layout

Automatic layout is in beta! We're changing and improving the layout algorithms,

📄️ Displaying Circuit JSON on a Webpage

Circuit JSON is a universal

There are many ways to layout your schematic and PCB with tscircuit including automatic layout and manual edits. In this article we'll discuss how to programmatically lay out a board using layout properties like `schX`/`schY` and `pcbX` and `pcbY`

📄️ Manual Edits

It can be cumbersome to programmatically define the locations of every component

📄️ Platform Configuration

The Platform Configuration allows you to change tscircuit behavior to best suite the platform the tscircuit code is running on.

📄️ Port and Net Selectors

Selectors are a string used to reference a port, net or any component. They're most

📄️ Programmatically Building Circuits

This guide is about using tscircuit inside of scripts, APIs or inside the browser. Maybe you want to create a website that allows your users drag'n'drop to create custom electronics and turn their designs into real circuits automatically.

📄️ Running tscircuit inside an iframe

tscircuit can be evaluated inside an iframe. This makes it easy to embed snippets on a webpage without complex build systems.

📄️ Understanding Fabrication Files

Fabrication files are files that can be uploaded to a fabricator or turn-key manufacturer to get an entire circuit board made. tscircuit includes three main types of files inside our fabrication files `zip`:

📄️ Using "sel" References

The sel object is a special import that allows you to easily reference

📄️ Using tscircuit without React

{/* tscircuit uses React by default for strong guarantees about how
