Nice list! Bookmarked. How comes not any board or open hardware design platform like Arduino or any sparkfun/nodemcu/etc are listed? Not even based on the platform they are based?



What’s so open about Arduino? Can’t find any layout for download. Am I doing something wrong?

Edit: it’s popular for sure, but is Arduino really open?


They have the software on Github and the hardware layouts (as well as additional things like Fritzing files for some boards) available through their documentation - e.g.:

- Arduino Uno: https://docs.arduino.cc/hardware/uno-rev3#resources

- Arduino Nano 33 IoT: https://docs.arduino.cc/hardware/nano-33-iot#resources


Thanks, there are some eagle zip files included indeed.
