The KiCad project is proud to announce the latest series 5 stable release. The 5.1.10 stable version contains critical bug fixes and other minor improvements since the previous release.
A list of all of the fixed bugs since the 5.1.9 release can be found on the KiCad 5.1.10 milestone page. This release contains several critical bug fixes so please consider upgrading as soon as possible.
Version 5.1.10 is made from the 5.1 branch with some cherry picked changes from the development branch.
Packages for Windows, MacOS, and Linux are available or will be in the very near future. See the KiCad download page for guidance.
KiCad no longer supports macOS older than Mojave 10.14 as of the 5.1.7 release.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
