Circuit Canvas: A Fritzing Alternative for Hobbyists and Educators

Fritzing has long been popular among teachers and electronics enthusiasts for creating and documenting circuit designs. However, after they placed it behind a paywall and stopped developing it further, many have been searching for a Fritzing alternative.

Drawing Schematics With Circuit Canvas

Drawing schematics is very easy with Circuit Canvas - even easier than drawing with pen and paper.
