KiHub Brings Hardware Reviews to GitHub
KiHub adds visual diffs, automated checks, pinned discussions, and approval history to KiCad projects without disrupting GitHub-based workflows. It helps hardware teams review schematic and PCB changes with the context that ordinary text diffs miss.
KiHub targets a real gap in software-style hardware collaboration: Git tracks files, but reviewers need to understand design intent and physical impact.
- –Visual and semantic diffs make schematic, PCB, net, footprint, track, and zone changes easier to inspect.
- –ERC, DRC, BOM, parity, and policy checks bring release-readiness signals into pull-request workflows.
- –Canvas-pinned comments preserve design context better than line comments on generated KiCad files.
- –GitHub remains the source of truth, reducing migration friction for teams already using version control.
- –The closed-source hosted model may limit adoption among KiCad’s open-source-oriented community.
