I never even tried the autorouter on Eagle.

I used to... and then realized just how bad it is. Now I lay out everything by hand. The only decent router companion I encountered for Eagle was the external, java-based push-pull freerouting: https://github.com/nikropht/FreeRouting

That is a beautiful set of code, i.e. a router that respects various signal requirements. I haven't used it in a long time... but would if I had complicated boards. Where it really shines is illustrating how different component layout strategies can complicate or uncomplicate connections between components.
 
I'm starting to learn Kicad, so far so good. I'm curious if anyone has come across tutorials that they found really helpful?
