Drawer

Field notes

4 sheets in this drawer.

  1. Commit messages for hardware that won't lie in six monthsVersion control isn't just for code. When your schematic changes, write a message your future self will actually understand.
  2. Bill of materials that ships with the repoYour BoM is documentation that gets stale the moment you order parts. Store it alongside the schematic so both versions match when someone clones your work.
  3. Version your hardware like you mean itSilkscreen dates and commit hashes turn three identical boards into a timeline you can actually debug.
  4. The README is a jointIf the next person cannot reflow your project from the docs, the craft is incomplete.
