Hello there,

There is someone with C++ experience who wants to contribute to
opensource projects. I was thinking that he can start working on this
automatic factory manual generation.

Can we establish a possible work flow so that he knows what to do ?

I would say that at first let him focus on the schematic end. I would
rather want to see something that also helps schematic reviews as
well. can you share your views on what you would like to see in that
generated document ?

regards,
Chitlesh
