## What it is
A repository of CAD files (STEP, Fusion 360, and STL) for Adafruit boards, electronic components, and parts. It provides 3D models useful for hardware design, enclosure modeling, and 3D printing workflows.

## Use cases
- download 3D models of Adafruit boards for enclosure design
- import STEP files of electronic components into CAD software
- find STL files for 3D printing reference parts
- model projects around Adafruit hardware dimensions
- check board dimensions before designing a case

## When to choose
- you need accurate 3D models of Adafruit boards and components
- you are designing enclosures or mounts around Adafruit hardware
- you want MIT-licensed CAD assets for electronics projects

## When to avoid
- you need CAD models for non-Adafruit hardware
- you are looking for PCB design files like EAGLE or KiCad schematics
- you need parametric models for parts Adafruit has not published

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: graphics, simulation, developer-tools
- domain: hardware, files, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: cad, 3d-models, step-files, stl-files, fusion-360, electronics, pcb, hardware-design, 3d-printing
