To give SKiDL some part libraries to work with, -you'll also need to install KiCad. +

Please note, SKiDL does need part libraries to work with. +You can either download those libraries alone from: https://gitlab.com/kicad/libraries/kicad-symbols OR you can install KiCad + and those libraries will be shipped with it.

Then, you'll need to set an environment variable so SKiDL can find the libraries. For Windows, do this:
