✨ cvpcb(1) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the General Commands Manual page for cvpcb πŸ’– pull up a chair, this one's short and sweet and honestly kind of iconic.


🌸 NAME 🌸

cvpcb β€” assign components to a netlist. that's it, that's the whole vibe πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

cvpcb [netlist]

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

so here's the tea, bestie β˜• cvpcb lets you take every single component that shows up in the netlist and match it up with a component footprint β€” the thing that's actually gonna represent it on a PCB 🫢 then it takes that info and adds it right back into the netlist. like a little glow-up for your component list, no cap ✨

literally: component goes in, footprint gets assigned, netlist comes out the other side knowing exactly how it's gonna look on the board πŸ‘‘
