Is there such a thing already?
I know of software that allows you to design circuits but if I wanted to actually implement them, I kinda need to think about how to wire this in my breadboard.
The way I see it is that the software would accept major circuit definition files, wire this into a virtual breadboard, maybe run a few optimizations for "use less wire", "use less breadboard space", "space things out (for easier manuevering)" and then output a nice picture of which component goes where on the breadboard.
I guess the next level is something like this but for PCB (I have no idea about PCB design). You provide a circuit file, choose some optimization "keep heat sources away from each other, "use/don't use SMD" and it provides you a PCB design that can be taken to a printer.
(does this ^^ exist?)
