Hi KSHITIZ TYAGI, I signed up for Efabless about 3 weeks ago. I signed up as an Individual. This last 7 days, I've been setting up the Open_Source CAD tools, which is where I have had to go through a large learning curve on the use of GitHub and how to clone the CAD tools and correctly setup and run the associated make files. Thanks to the help of Mitch Bailey and anthonywall, I am almost set up with the CAD tools.

Hi Pritesh, I am still having problems setting up all the tools. I have been able to load up xschem. netgen, magic, and the PDK. I am having problems loading up ngspice. What tools are you having problems loading up?

I just noticed your slack message. I have been out on vacation for the last two weeks and am just now getting back onto this.

Here is what I had to do in order to get the open-source cad tools and open-source pdk setup:

(1) make sure Python3 is installed --- If python3 is not installed the easiest way is to go to anaconda.com and download their open-source package (2) make sure you have yaml installed --- once pyhton3 is installed you can type: --- python3 -m pip install pyyaml (4) once you have python3 installed and yaml installed you can then install all the open-pdk stuff. --- go to https://anthonywall.ie/opentools and follow the instructions.
