        Here are some  screenshots from testing of Satellite Vault.<br><br>

        I created a component lifecycle: <i>New, Checked, Used</i>:
            <ol class="content-list">
                <li class="content-list-item"><span class="content-text">When I create a component, it is marked as <i>New</i></span></li>
                <li class="content-list-item"><span class="content-text">After I finish schematic I go through checking procedure which includes component checking. I compare pin names/numbers/footprint with datasheet. Once I am sure the component is correct I mark it as <i>Checked</i>.</span></li>
                <li class="content-list-item"><span class="content-text">When a board is build and I am sure the component is 100% correct, I mark it as <i>Used</i>.</span></li>
            </ol><br>

        When I double click on a component in library, I can immediately see what is status of the component. This way I know which components I have to check, also useful when more people are using one common library. I will continue testing this feature to see the real usability.
