    Split design notes, assembly, and testing into separate docs as the project grows.

    README12pt

    Show a quick-start snippet so contributors can see what using your project looks like.

  3. 3
    Build and fabrication9pt

    Add a section on how to get the board made: export gerbers, order from a fab (JLCPCB, PCBWay, OSH Park), and use the BOM.

  4. 4
    BOM and manufacturability8pt

    Commit a gerber set (or a fab zip) so the board can be ordered without regenerating outputs. Some projects intentionally leave this to the fab step.

Working through the fixes? Let every push regrade itself.

The free GitHub App rescans this repo on every push and posts the grade as a commit check, so the score climbs without coming back to rescan by hand.
