sf-slack2<frenebo> Hi, does anyone know where someone could get started with SymbiFlow and FPGAs? I bought a board from Altera since I was interested in FPGAs, but I was disappointed with their software.I found SymbiFlow and IceStorm and would be interested in helping01:31
hackerfooHi frenebo, how would you like to contribute? Here's a list of issues that would be good to start with: https://github.com/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+user%3ASymbiFlow+label%3A%22good+first+issue%2201:50
hackerfooThe first step is to check out https://github.com/SymbiFlow/symbiflow-arch-defs and follow "Getting Started" from the README.01:52
tpbTitle: GitHub - SymbiFlow/symbiflow-arch-defs: FOSS architecture definitions of FPGA hardware useful for doing PnR device generation. (at github.com)01:52

litghostfrenebo: Currently open source flows exist or partially exists for ice40, ECP5 and Xilinx 7-series parts.  The first step in creating those flows is creating the raw device database, which is icestorm for ice40, prjtrellis for ECP5, and prjxray for 7-series parts.  I'm not sure of an altera bitstream documentation effort.  In theory the documentation strategies in prjtrellis and prjxray might work for Altera parts.03:46
litghostfrenebo: Once a documentation project exists, architecture definitions would be welcome in https://github.com/SymbiFlow/symbiflow-arch-defs03:46

sorearsome work has been done on MAX V03:48
sorearI don't think that has much overlap with what people mean by "Altera parts" though03:49
hackerfooThe MAX 10 family is pretty interesting, it goes up to 50K LEs.04:14
