FuseSoC
summary
FuseSoC is a package manager and build system for HDL that flattens dependency trees, generates tool-specific setup scripts (Tcl, project files), and can run simulation, synthesis, or stop with an archiveable build tree. Cores use core description files (vendor:library:name:version), explicit file sets and types, and configurable targets and parameters. Generators convert Chisel/MyHDL/C to synthesizable HDL on the fly. The project supports about 15 tool backends, has ~40 contributors, several hundred packaged cores and seven years of production use.
