Circuitor - A new electrical circuits drawing library

grangelouis · April 27, 2025, 8:21pm

Hi everyone ,

circuitor is a new Typst Universe library I’m developing to draw electrical circuits — including resistors, capacitors, transistors, sources, LEDs, and more!

I’ve already added most of the basic components, and I’m aiming for a release on May 1st, 2025.

Don’t forget to star⭐️ if you’re interested in using it!

I hope everything goes smoothly! In the meantime, feel free to check out the project on GitHub. You’re welcome to start discussions, report issues, or share any feedback!

Nice! I was about to write, your readme could use a picture – but actually the problem here is dark mode you may be interested in having a look at how the community’s package template takes care of dark/light mode thumbnails:

github.com

typst-community/typst-package-template/blob/main/README.md?plain=1#L39-L42


      
          <picture>
            <source media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)" srcset="./thumbnail-dark.svg">
            <img src="./thumbnail-light.svg">
          </picture>

github.com

typst-community/typst-package-template/blob/main/docs/thumbnail.typ#L5-L7


      
          // style thumbnail for light and dark theme
          #let theme = sys.inputs.at("theme", default: "light")
          #set text(white) if theme == "dark"

github.com

typst-community/typst-package-template/blob/main/Justfile#L12-L13


      
          typst compile docs/thumbnail.typ thumbnail-light.svg
          typst compile --input theme=dark docs/thumbnail.typ thumbnail-dark.svg

Hi @SillyFreak,

Thank you for the suggestion, I’m going to upgrade my readme by adding more circuits illustrations and fixing the dark mode .
