Hello,

I have started course "Mixed-Signal Hardware Design with KiCad " few weeks ago. The attachments of the first video contains a KiCad project with scheme.
The footprint assignment dialog thrown the following error message due to missing file:

"
Errors were encountered loading footprints: Footprint library 'C:\Users\denis\Documents\MixSigCourse\KicadFiles/PhilsLab_Footprints_KiCad6.pretty' not found.
"

Since several components of the scheme missing footprints, I can not start a PCB drawing.
Can you help to find missing footprints, please?
Maybe there is some existing tutorial on how to manually create footprint.

Thank you

@Denis Attached is the ZIP-ed footprint folder. Although for an older version, DigiKey has some videos on footprint creation for KiCad that will help, e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHH4G_EWhm0

sorry to necro something so old: would it be possible to add this zip to the downloads for the course? I have registered for this course also, and had to hunt for this for a while. Having it linked in a discord that's only referenced online through a discord-to-fedevel website generated page is a super roundabout way to get this
