A recipe: essential ingredients for successful Fritzing:
- Add 500 tonnes of patience.
- Add 5 installations, swiftly broken.
- Add one forehead, beaten vigorously against the wall.
- Add a liberal sprinkling of swearing
- Add an even bigger sprinkling of swearing
- Stir in arcane spice of XML and SVG.
- Knead in several litres of lubricating genius oil from the forums.
- Carefully decant the mixture with flame-proof tongs into a bomb-proof box and place at the centre of your life.
- Leave for many hours until your day job shrinks into insignificance.
- Remember it is all worth it, because nobody else out there is doing anything remotely as good that is Open Source and free.
In other words: If you can't code something better - don't call it ****.
