📰 News
Release notes and announcements for typeCAD/pcb and typeCAD/hal.
The KiCad round-trip, grown up October 1, 2026 typecad-pcb import got an overhaul: every board element now syncs back into your TypeScript — zones, routes, silkscreen text, the stackup — with snapshots, convergence checks, and a live watch mode that updates source while you edit in KiCad.typecad-hal trace: CPU load, stack headroom and frame budgets — from the board itself September 25, 2026 As of today, one config record bakes a small sampler into your firmware. CPU lanes, stack high-water marks, UI frame times, on-device alarms, CI gates, drift checks and performance assertions inside hardware tests — all over the serial console you already have.The layout view: arrange the board by hand, keep the code September 25, 2026 The board viewer has a new Layout mode. Drag parts, draw traces with width and clearance rules watching you, then press apply — the whole session lands in your source files as ordinary TypeScript, and the board rebuilds.typecad-hal sbom: a build-true SBOM, stamped on every build September 22, 2026 EU CRA obligations are phasing in, and firmware shipping into the EU needs an SBOM. As of today, every typecad-hal build writes one for you — what the build actually linked, as CycloneDX 1.6 or SPDX 2.3, stamped next to the firmware.New VS Code extensions for pcb and hal September 18, 2026 The typeCAD/hal extension merges three extensions into one board-aware editor, and typeCAD/pcb gets a bundled board viewer with two-way cross-probing — both ship inside every new project.typeCAD and Cuttlefish are now one site September 8, 2026 typecad.dev is now the home for both typeCAD/pcb and typeCAD/hal — docs, examples, and news live here.
