There are many resources to get PCB foot print and schematic symbols for components for use in the Altium Designer. What are the best resources to get ready-made reliable (preferrably free) PCB footprint and schematic symbols for use in the Altium Designer?

For quick symbol/footprint free download I use Altium's "Manufacturer Part Search". Sometimes I use SnapEDA.
PS: As qdrives correctly pointed out, these are "acceptable". It means, they may be fine for hobby projects, but for professional design it may be just a starting point and you often need to modify them to meet your own library standards (e.g. correct layers, change 3D models, etc).
PSS: Don't forget to check them👍 1Comment
