Appearance

Migrate to version 1.1 ​

There are two ways to get the 1.1 tools.

Download version 1.1 ​

Download and use the current VM. It already includes VSCodium and the Go Board tools.

Download version 1.1

Keep version 1.0 and install the extra tools ​

Install the tools in your current VM instead.

Install VSCodium ​

This installs the editor.

bash
nix profile install nixpkgs#vscodium \
  --extra-experimental-features flakes \
  --extra-experimental-features nix-command

A trailing \ means “continue on the next line.” If typing this on one line, omit each \; including them will cause errors.

Install Go Board tools ​

This installs Yosys, nextpnr, icepack, iceprog, and USButils for the Nandland Go Board.

bash
nix profile install \
  nixpkgs#nextpnr \
  nixpkgs#icestorm \
  nixpkgs#usbutils \
  --extra-experimental-features flakes \
  --extra-experimental-features nix-command

A trailing \ means “continue on the next line.” If typing this on one line, omit each \; including them will cause errors.
