3.7. Fritzing

Fritzing (https://fritzing.org/) is an open source hardware initiative, similar to Circuito. User can create circuits, mainly based on Arduino microcontroller using breadboard for placing the additional electronic elements. User can write the C code in code tab and then upload it to the actual hardware which is connected to the computer.

The ability of sharing projects, is a welcome feature for Fritzing that helps teachers to publish their projects in order to be accessible by the students. Fritzing cannot carry out simulations, alike to Circuito, nevertheless it is a valuable tool for replace real lab and introduce electronics and microcontrollers in higher education.
