If you're a #guix user - what are you currently doing with Guix, or what plans do you have?
Are you adding a particular service? Exploring some part of configuring your system?
Or trying Guix as a package manager on top of another GNU/Linux distribution like #debian, #ubuntu, #archlinux or something else?
Tell us about your Guix plans for the weekend ... or this month ... or this year! šŖ
@guix Other than as package manager on top of #archlinux, Iām using #guix for electronics design, mostly #vhdl and #fpga related stuff.
I run simulations with help of #hdlmake using #ghdl compiler, #osvvm for verification, #cocotb for testbenches, #yosys for synthesis, #nextpnr for placement and routing and #openFPGALoader for flashing. Finally, I use my own Guix channel to package gateware and run #ci tests on #sourcehut Guix image. A demo toy example of this runs here
@guix @csantosb my initial channel started there https://git.sr.ht/~hellseher/ffab
Nowadays I fix more python directly on Guix, help is wanted
@csantosb did you try to port some Yocto tooling to Guix?
@csantosb a colleague of mine mentioned that it's quite a common and widely used tool in FPGA development
