For anyone interested in FPGAs, I’d recommend one that can use the excellent open source F4PGA toolchain: https://f4pga.org/

I have an orangecrab board with a lattice FPGA, it’s super cool to be able to run a single makefile and build a riscv cpu and buildroot based linux for it.

That's awesome. I ordered an Orangecrab to start learning FPGAs with and it just arrived :)

Exciting!! This was the project I used: https://github.com/litex-hub/linux-on-litex-vexriscv
