As most hobbyist and electronics hackers know, keeping tabs on all the tiny components, pieces and parts inside your toolkit is almost impossible. It’s especially troublesome when you go to start a new project only to realise that one piece you need is already in use elsewhere or lost inside a box. To help solve this, ecDB is a web app organisation tool that helps track your electronic components.
The web app is still in beta, but its core feature set, the management and tracking of electronics components, works great. You have to manually enter in each of your different components, but once you do you can set them aside in projects, track a shopping list of what you need, and quickly see what you have on hand. If it’s a complicated project you can upload images with schematics so you can keep of everything in a centralised place. If you’re into electronics hacking this is a very handy organisation tool.
