Hi!

When beginners (like me), start out with an Arduino board and a book/projects, it takes some time to get a feeling for the pinouts and wirings of a board. Actually, it was one of the google searches I did most: "pinout arduino uno" for example.

Now, since most results just deliver a PNG or PDF of certain components, I thought it might be helpful to have something more "web like", e.g. an SVG.

I did some first experiments here: http://pinboardjs.divshot.io/arduino_uno and http://pinboardjs.divshot.io/arduino_micro

However, to understand how others might use this, if/how they keep a browser open while tinkering, or just when they want to share some schematic online, would this project be interesting to you?

Thanks!

Adafruit has a really cool way of doing it: https://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-trinket/pinouts

I used to print out pinouts, but now I usually just keep the diagram up on screen or sketch a quick schematic on paper.

thanks! I missed that!
actually last week I gave a small talk at meetup on this topic. here are the slides: https://speakerdeck.com/mulderp/sharing ... javascript

I will start with drawing component pinouts first, and go back to the board level later.
