Flux will make sure to use components/vendors/distributors that are to your liking but right now you will still have to order them yourself We are planning to directly integrate with fabs to place order/get quotes in the near

Founder here Excited to share what we have been working on for the best couple years…think of it as Devin for PCB design Let me know if you have any questions

Devin is light years ahead of Cursor. It’s not even the same category! I stopped writing code by hand almost entirely and my output (measured in landed PRs) has been 10x And when I write code myself then it’s gnarly stuff and I want AI to g

The really cool thing that I forgot to mention here is that it makes the model composable As you provide requirements and specs via properties to your project OR by adding components (which have their own properties) you are implicitly opti

How it works has been rapidly evolving But in short: yes, thats how it works as of today! Our docs go into a bit more detail here. But this space has been moving so fast that usually how it worked last week issn’t how it works this week. Yo

Yes you can! Currently in production we only support pdfs But support for html pages is in the pipeline as is support for multiple URLs per component/project So you could provide a datasheet, application notes plus your own notes and F

Founder here A lot of you have been asking us how we ensure correctness of Copilots responses Well here it is…citations! Additionally you can provide your own custom data sources…so it’s not limited to datasheets but also works with applica

Great question It’s something we spend a lot of time thinking about. On one side we want to prevent hallucinations but on the other we want to keep the LLMs creativeness We are experimenting with a bunch of different approaches here already

Humblebrag: You’d be surprised how many of the most serious businesses have started to migrate to use Flux already! Agree though that there is more to creating complex boards that automated wiring…we are not done here, just taking it step b

Thanks for giving us a shot and the feedback! We are still at day one here…lots of work ahead clearly! On simulation: we have lots more to come here but work took a bit of a back burner as we have been focusing on PCB layout recently! On AI
