I actually thought this was about learning verilog or another hdl. I was a little disappointed, maybe I should write a blog about my experience learning an hdl as a software engineer.
Nonetheless them learning embedded systems programming is still an interesting read! Especially when coming from a language like C#
- Athrunen 7y agoThank you, now I want to learn about hdl. ^^ Languagevise coming from C# and learning c or c++ for low-level programming was quite smooth, also coming from python was the hard part, that was a lot of comforts I had to give up. But as I am also learning some micropython, I might write about porting stuff to it in the future.
- justinclift 7y agoSince you mention MicroPython, TinyGo (eg Go instead of Python) might be interesting as well: :) https://tinygo.org https://tinygo.org https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo
- eyegor 7y agoYes, I ran into the same confusion. Was expecting a nice beginner's tutorial for hdl development/fpgas (would be nice to dump on some of my colleagues), instead this is more directed at newbies for microcontrollers. Still nice, but perhaps needs a different title. Aside, I'm curious what resources you used to self teach hdl/fpga development. I have a formal background so I usually give poor explanations to people without any background. It's hard to figure out where I can start from when people ask questions.
