@copilot how do I use Flux?

To get started with Flux, here's an overview of the basic workflow:
  1. Create a New Project: Click on "New Project" on your dashboard and give it a name and description.
  2. Design a Schematic: In the Schematic Editor, add electronic components from the component library and connect them to build your circuit.
  3. Validate the Design: Flux provides design rule checks (DRC) to ensure that your circuit is electrically sound and can be physically realized as a PCB.
  4. Generate a PCB Layout: Use the PCB layout editor to place components and route traces. Flux's auto-router can assist in this process.
  5. Export the Design: When you're satisfied with your design, you can export it in various formats (like Gerber) to commission a physical PCB from a manufacturer.
Remember, when you are designing your circuit schematic or PCB layout, the Flux Copilot can help suggest connections. If you get a suggestion for a specific connection in your schematic, you can have it done by clicking on the "Take Action" button[1].
If you're new to Flux and would like a step-by-step walkthrough, I recommend going through the "First project in Flux" tutorial, or consult our detailed documentation[2].
You can also check out video tutorials, crash courses, and recorded events on Flux's YouTube Channel[3].
For any issues or questions you encounter, you can reach out for help to our Slack community where you can engage directly with the Flux team and other users[4].
