I started working on a version 1 of the schematic of the Normpad.
I wanted it to be clean and organized. Hence I have properly labeled the
Sections of the schematic.
It took me 2 hours and I have recorded a time lapse using Lookout. But
as I am unable to add the time lapse it self I am adding its picture.

This was the second most tedious task of the day. took me 45min to Find
add and organize the right footprints based on the items provided by the
hackclub to build the hackpad.
Also the XIAO provided by the SEED studio and the care package differ a
lot. Finally I came to the conclusion that the one provided in the care
package works the best.
I am adding the the footprints I have used. Hope this saves someones time in the future.

I have just started with PCB editor of Kicad and I have to figure out
yet that how to design and make the proper traces. I am refering to the
Orpheuspad mentioned in the hackpad guide. Its quite useful but not as
per my requirements. There are no LED’s added in it which I want to, No
capacitors etc.
So I need to figure this out on my own i guess.
The rough PCB is as the following right now.

I would like your advises on the PCB editor, how to use it, any tricks
to use or any references to look into. Anything helpful will be
appriciated.
