Fritzing is a great tool and in the last time it lags of development. that is mainly because of the “complicated” codebase written in Qt.
Now we already started to build an api-client for the fritzing parts.
api docs:
currently we build a parts-viewer, uses the api-client, as a javascript/react-app that should later become a parts-creator.
Giving fritzing a new future is really what is needed. currently only the api-client is a public repository but the other parts for the app will be public as well when they reach a point where users can use them.
the fritzing qt-code is a good source to start from. the plan is to completely port fritzing to the world of html, css and javascript (mainly react).
if you want to take part of the development, don’t hesitate to let me know.
