KiBot is a program which helps you to generate the fabrication and documentation files for your KiCad projects easily, repeatable, and most of all, scriptably. This means you can use a Makefile to export your KiCad PCBs just as needed, or do it in a CI/CD environment.

For more information consult the documentation (hosted by Read the Docs)
