Wiring Diagram software recommendations?

Post by sdcrytek » Fri Aug 31, 2018 12:33 pm

Hey all!

New to the sudomod community and also new to this type of modding and electronics. I am in the midst of throwing myself to the wolves in terms of learning to create two gameboy zeros, a DMG and gameboy pocket that I still had that no longer worked. I've been using the search function and scanning through various posters (rodo and veteran as examples) and their diagrams. I'm currently gathering parts and starting to receive them but I noticed I dont have a good diagram to go off of. For me, I like to be pretty organized and was wondering if anyone has good software recommendations for creating my own wiring diagram. Im currently using visio and its making me go crazy.

Thanks!

I'm just using the markup feature on my iPad. Here are just some diagrams I made:
