Great to hear :) I hope your boards will turn out perfectly fine.

I am on Max 5x plan, so there were no additional costs. But the would-be API cost was around 450 usd.

Thank you :) That means a lot to me.

You are right. What I meant in my conclusion was more about : "I will use these tools to generate parts of a project I don't necessarily care about." I already started learning about proper PCB design, and I am actively fighting against choosing an LLM instead of grasping a concept fully. It's something I am struggling with, but all this is new for most of us. Hoping I will find a good balance at the end. Thanks for your remarks :)

I researched a bit on how to manufacture PCBs at home, and i came across Voltera V one. The price is indeed way too high, but I am hoping somebody will make a foss version of it. There are already pretty interesting foss PnP machines.

Yes indeed. I paid 7.5 euros extra per e-ink display. So it was 33.5 euros per board.
