About the project

An autorouter and component placer for KiCad boards: draws tracks and vias into a .kicad_pcb file and validates results with KiCad's own DRC. Runs on Linux, C++20, optionally GPU-accelerated via CUDA.

Useful for
  • Route unrouted connections on a KiCad 9/10 board with tracemaker route
  • Check the routing result with kicad-cli pcb drc and compare against the original file
  • Improve component placement before routing via tracemaker-place --mode routable

4.0 Early signal Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 7, 2026, 03:17 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

02040October 4, 2026October 7, 2026

Bars show daily stars; the line is a moving average of the available history. Short histories do not yet establish a reliable usual pace. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-07 (UTC), 01:43–03:06: 58 → 62 stars (+4). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +37 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 2 days old and already has 62 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Top new repositories this week: #181.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
