Programmable Audio Workshop Grame, France

https://paw.grame.fr

I was always interested to get into FPGA development but one reason holding me back is the convoluted situation with the necessary toolchains. Proprietary, often Windows only and complicated licensing, for some you need to take a course to learn how to pay for them. Hopefully it changes towards a more open and welcoming experience and this conference tomorrow is quite interesting about FPGA and audio, and can be attended via stream.
