Custom parts database

Hi, is it possible to easily add a custom part database?

It depends on what you mean by a custom part database. Do you want to adapt the project for your inventory? Do you want to use it for mouser?

Currently, the project is tailored for LCSC and JLC PCB. Thus, both, the frontend and backend, use file formats that closely mirror the structure offered by JCLC, they also expect each component to have an LCSC number and the frontend makes queries to their website for attrition information.

In theory, you could use it for another database. You would definitely need to rewrite the table generator and also tweak the frontend to not use the LCSC number. Feel free to do so, however, I do not plan to support other datasources officially.
