[Feature Request] More PCB footprints/symbols for PCB generation #46

Description

@ujl123

I saw your post on reddit and decided to test it out. However it looks like the only footprints are switches. I think if additional footprints and symbols were added it could really flesh out the feature and turn it from a "jumping off point for designing" to a full turn key pcb design. There would still be the issue of routing (auto routing could be another feature).

Getting back to the request, I would say adding the below footprints and symbols would really help someone make a barebones design where all they have to do is routing.

Components:

Need to have
MCU (Promicro , xiao) : TBH if you stopped at this, this would already be good enough as you could probably live with this for monoblock builds.

Nice to have
Encoder (combos w/choc combo/mx , or no combo)
reset button

I didn't mention stuff required for split board, wireless board etc as I don't think your tool is meant to design pcbs for those (correct me if I'm wrong).

Hopefully you consider this request, even something basic like throwing the symbols like the promicro, or encoder on the schematic file without wiring it and letting the user set it up themselves would be good enough.
