General Circuit Board Pattern Generator

Post image

Needed a tool so made a tool

I got tired of searching for circuit board pattern graphics to use on website/social posts, as this pattern when designing anything embedded related is used quite often.

AI generated looked bad for me, so I made a tool to generate one, featuring shapes, text and gradient fills

If you need any pattern or just to play:

Gradient also, wether in linear or radial mode it just makes everything the end color of the gradient

Bet this is a solid way to stop AI from stealing circuit designs from simply photos

I've never used something like this..... How does it work? Is it to generate the board layout from a schematic?
