Zorowire vs WireViz / Filare
WireViz è uno strumento Python gratuito e open source che trasforma una descrizione YAML di connettori e cavi in diagrammi di collegamento chiari e in una distinta base. Per scelta non disegna una disposizione fisica. Zorowire importa lo YAML di WireViz e aggiunge ciò su cui l'officina lavora: lunghezze dei rami, tavola 1:1, lista di taglio e preventivo, nel browser.
github.com/wireviz/WireViz · verificatoIn breve
Per diagrammi di collegamento chiari tenuti in git, WireViz è difficile da battere al suo prezzo. Quando devi costruire il cablaggio — tavola, lista di taglio, etichette, un prezzo per il cliente — importa lo YAML in Zorowire e aggiungi le lunghezze dei rami.

Cosa ottieni con Zorowire
- A 1:1 formboard from branch lengths, tiled for office printers.
- A cut list with cut lengths, strip lengths, terminals and seals per end.
- A quote from your labour times.
- Excel and CSV import, so nobody has to write YAML by hand.
- Nothing to install: no Python, no Graphviz on each computer.
Dove WireViz è forte
- Free and open source (GPL-3.0), with a large community: 5,316 stars on GitHub on 30 October 2026.
- Clean, readable connection diagrams.
- Plain-text files that version well in git.
- Filare, a fork, adds multi-page documents.

Passi da WireViz?
Mostraci una licenza o una fattura pagata di WireViz e ricevi il primo anno di Shop al prezzo fondatore, 49 € al mese invece di 79. Ti aiutiamo a importare i primi cablaggi.
- Import your WireViz .yml file: connectors, pins, cables, conductors and connections come across.
- A WireViz file has no branch points or branch lengths, so add the branches in the Segments sheet or the branch tree. A cable's overall length is kept as its conductors' fixed length.
- Read the findings — for example colour codes outside IEC 60757 are kept as written and reported.
- Print the calibration sheet, then the board.
