SpinalHDL is a hardware description (HDL) framework embedded in Scala, enabling hardware designers to build digital circuits with modern programming abstractions. Instead of writing in Verilog or VHDL directly, users describe hardware components and their interconnects using Scala code and Spinal’s domain-specific library, which then emits synthesizable hardware (e.g. as Verilog). Because SpinalHDL is embedded in Scala, it allows reuse of functional abstractions, parameterization, modular composition, and higher-level constructs to manage complexity. ...

Vale is a systems programming language and compiler that strives to combine performance, safety, and ease in a way that avoids many of the complexities of traditional memory management techniques. It is ahead-of-time (AOT) compiled, targeting LLVM as a backend, and is statically typed. The language introduces a concept called generational references to provide memory safety without relying on a garbage collector, and aims for “safe without a borrow checker” (i.e. reducing the burden on the...
