An example of an imported JLCPCB component

After your component has been added to tscircuit, you can import it as a @tsci/* import like this:

import { ESP32_WROOM_32DC } from "@tsci/AnasSarkiz.ESP32_WROOM_32DC"

export default () => (
  <board width="10mm" height="10mm">
    <ESP32_WROOM_32DC />
  </board>
)

CLI Import​

To import using the CLI, run npm install -g easyeda. This will give you the easyeda command line tool. You can then run easyeda convert as shown below

# Convert a schematic and footprint for JLCPCB part number C46749 (NE555)
# to tscircuit component
easyeda convert -i C46749 -o C46749.tsx
easyeda convert -i C46749 -t tsx

This will create a tsx file that you can import.
