# KiHub
> KiHub is a review platform for KiCad projects stored in GitHub. It turns a GitHub pull request or a manual comparison between branches, tags, or commits into a hardware-aware review with visual diffs, checks, design discussions, and an auditable decision.
KiCad remains the authoring tool and GitHub remains the repository and source of truth. KiHub adds the review workspace around project changes. It supports schematic and PCB review, base/head comparison, design-context discussion, ERC and DRC results, schematic-to-PCB parity, BOM review, readiness checks, and published read-only reviews.
KiHub does not replace KiCad, GitHub, PLM, ERP, or purchasing systems. Product, pricing, repository-access, and security details should be taken from the linked KiHub pages rather than inferred.
