hm-panelizer: a GUI based PCB gerber viewer + panelizer written in Python

hm-panelizer is a GUI based Printed Circuit Board (PCB) gerber file viewer and panelizer written in Python.

There are a couple of open source tools out there that will help you panelize your PCB, for example http://blog.thisisnotrocketscience.nl/projects/pcb-panelizer/ , https://github.com/sej7278/kicad-panelizer and www.github.com/yaqwsx/KiKit, however, I wanted a GUI based app, which I could run (easily) on a macOS based machine, so here we are.

It also gave me an opportunity to learn Python (it is my firstPython app, so it is most certainly not optimally implemented) and gain some insight into the mysterious world of gerber files.

The code is MIT licensed and is available on GitHub.
