<div>You stoke fear of KiCAD in my heart when you describe it as
lacking the (paraphrasing here) "streamlined and intuitive
interface of Eagle"! But it is time for me to give the new
KiCAD release a shot.</div>

This has been overdue with me too, but I was holding out for 4.0. At
the moment it looks worthwhile to leverage the work Chris Gammel has
put into teaching folks. He's put out one public video to do with
4.0 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yFZ6PUwKL8">here</a>.
If others are more tuned into the state of his updated Kicad
"curriculum" I know many of us would be eager to get details. <br>

The workflow is not nearly as streamlined nor as intuitive as
it is in<br>
Eagle (as is the sad fact of many many FOSS projects). I'm in
the midst<br>
of getting my head around it myself so that I can escape the
routing<br>
area and layer limitations of the free Eagle version.<br>
<br>
That said, aside from the head-scratching moments, I haven't
found many<br>
situations where KiCAD has failed to perform.<br>
<br>
Good luck!<br>
