Hello KiCad!

After watching KiCad for many years, I dove into the code in 2023 and helped implement multi drag in PcbNew. I attended KiCon '23 at A’Coruna and met the team. I recently had an opportunity to do a small PCB in KiCad 9 for a product. After being an Altium designer for 30+ years, the KiCad 9 work flow and features really impressed me. The new key presses took me a few days of brain re-training, but I have now been converted. The JobSet feature is fantastic. Looking forward to working with KiVar and InvenTree in the future. What a great tool, Im now all in. Good Bye Altium. Hello KiCad! A big thanks to the developers.
