Version control systems (VCS) have been around for a long time in the software world but can be surprisingly new to some folks in the electronics design industry. Version control tools are great for tracking and maintaining entire codebases without the old-school copying, pasting, zipping, and emailing steps many PCB designers use.

Join us for our Altium Designer VCS webinar. We’ll discuss:

Advantages of using version control
Project creation with version control
Adding an existing project to the VCS
Viewing project history and changes
