Some ideas to make this happen: - [ ] associate standard pdk cells to spice models (for example skywater pdk) - [ ] write a spice netlist translator from YAML...

an optical netlist represents connectivity of optical elements, and we use Sparameters of each component and a linear circuit solver to solve the overall circuit Sparameters when you extract the...

We could leverage https://github.com/Vlsir/Vlsir or bigspicy https://github.com/google/bigspicy to support both spice output and rust backend and spice netlist @growly @proppy

this package also looks nice https://github.com/cascode-labs/virtue @curtisma

great idea, having eme on gdsfactory would be great for modeling tapers, bends, adiabatic couplers ... @tvt173 @flaport

Here is another open source EME package that would be great to integrate with gdsfactory https://github.com/flaport/meow thank you Floris! @SkandanC @HelgeGehring @simbilod @thomasdorch

Yes, ideally we can get - automated completion of the circuit elements and ports for the active pdk - hierarchical schematics The current YAML has some limitations @tvt173 @flaport @proppy

https://xschem.sourceforge.io/stefan/xschem_man/what_is_xschem.html https://github.com/StefanSchippers/xschem Im thinking that with some graphviz visualization on networkx we could support schematic capture

Yes, we can plot netlist from a component with networkX Ideally we can also allow users to reorder the graph, either with code or gui-like interactions adding bokeh or plotly...

https://github.com/StefanSchippers/xschem Xschem is pretty nice for this
