As much as I like verilog, it’s so easy to fuck up something that’s not immediately obvious. This is amazing for giving the power of HDLs to a non-HDL audiencehttps://twitter.com/marcan42/status/1343785608666259457 …

You still need to know how HDL works when you write the actual applet code, but we take care of all the boilerplate, and nMigen provides tons of useful abstractions to avoid common gotchas. So it lets you build *useful* things even if you're not very experienced.

Disclaimer: I *love* glasgow. However, I found it non-trivial to get started; partially this is the "fault" of the wonderfully engineered, well-abstracted/layered sample plugins. "Just adding a simple thing" turns into reading a lot of code to understanding the framework.

This is in strong contrast to an under-engineered framework like Arduino - as much as I dislike Arduino, you're maximum of 2 layers apart from assembly, and everything is easily hackable. With glasgow, everything is hackable also but only after understanding the custom framework.

.@tmbinc knows Migen. Glasgow assumes you're willing to learn the (n)Migen side at least.
