The most common PCB workflow consists of the following steps:

  1. drawing the schematics with sch-rnd ( tutorial video , also on youtube)
  2. importing the schematics/netlist in pcb-rnd, placement, board routing (tutorial video, also on youtube)
  3. exporting CAM files (gerber, excellon) for the board fab (tutorial video, also on (youtube)

After getting familiar with the basic workflow, there are shorter topical videos for sch-rnd and pcb-rnd . Most of these can be watched in arbitrary order to enhance your editing efficiency.
