Jlcpcb, the manufacturer mentioned in the article, has a graphical editor with grid functionality and they even have a JS API if you want to automate PCB changes like arranging LEDs or renaming components.

Yeah I'm not surprised this is a feature in other EDA packages, it's something I'd like to explore more, in combination with OpenSCAD. I've been pretty happy with the few things I've tried from JL, though I'm a longtime supporter of OSHPark and I think their finish/price ratio is still excellent.
