Seems like there is some way. There's a startup[1] that I've been seeing around on twitter[2] which makes it easy to create in-game assets that are style-consistent. Haven't tried it yet but it looks promising!

thanks for the feedback!

ironically maybe it's also feedback that our share feedback button is too hidden


oh most've missed adding that in. we'll make sure you can let the magic smoke out of the arduino if you fry it too lol


looks like our db went down for a few minutes when you were trying it out! Sorry about that!


Yeah we'll likely create a schematic view! Thanks


Great feedback, we've chatted a bit about this internally already. It's something we'll likely add. In general we're looking for ways to make it easier to see pinouts/voltages/current/etc.

Thanks for sharing!


Great to hear. It's hard to put your work out there and you did a good job. User interfaces are hard. What's obvious to some is hostile to others lol


looks like we got the HN hug of death lol, back up now


Yeah on my machine it's a lot slower using Firefox than chrome. We can investigate and see why it's happening.

Also I do agree that 2D interface is probably important to add at some point too!

I think right now the skeuomorphism is nice for folks wanting to get their hands dirty with circuit projects but don't have all the materials/supplies available for whatever reason (cost/space/etc)


macOS Safari (2020 Intel MacBook Pro) is unusably slow.


Hey! Would love to investigate and see why this isn't working for you. Any more info on your OS/specs/browser version or what exactly isn't working? Should work on chrome.


latest linux chrome Version 108.0.5359.124 (Official Build) (64-bit) on ubuntu latest LTS, directly from google (not in a snap). Starts up but central window just has a rotating loading icon that never goes away


Hey! I work on Diode w/ Austin (OP). Yeah we use a wasm-compiled version of ngSpice for the circuit simulation.


How will Diode differentiate itself from TINA? They have 3D breadboard, web browser, microcontroller code simulation, PCB layout, equation extraction, etc.

presumably melony already knew that because ngspice is mostly licensed under a 3-clause bsd license which says

> Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution.

unless you're violating the ngspice license? or the documentation and/or other materials are just hard to find?

parts of ngspice are also licensed under gplv2, cc-by-sa-4.0, lgpl-2.1+, or gpl2+, but maybe you aren't using those parts


Melony is not that pedantic and melony does not ask questions whose answers melony already know. Melony has better things to do than to hound SaaS services over alleged license violations (unlike a certain somebody).


perhaps if melony didn't know that, it is evidence that the required credit is, in effect, not being given; that the authors of this software are, in effect, passing off the work of the ngspice contributors as their own


Cool! We did something similar when I was on the team that built multisim.com


That's so cool that there's a web version now! I was introduced to multisim back in high-school and enjoyed that unit a lot, will play around with it on the weekend :)
