 +====== Getting Started with Vivado and Vitis for Baremetal Software Projects ======
 +
 +/* Note to maintainers, this page uses the include plugin to pull in sections. Documentation can be found here: [[internal/ase-documentation/plugins#include]] */
 +
 +===== Overview =====
 +This guide will work you through the process of setting up a project in Vivado and Vitis. A simple hardware design including a processor with several AXI GPIO peripherals connected to buttons and LEDs will be created. This design will then be exported to the Vitis IDE, and a baremetal software project will be created and run which polls the buttons and writes to the LEDs.
 +
 +**Note:** //Screenshots presented in this guide may not have been taken with your version of the tools. The workflow presented here has been verified in Vivado and Vitis 2020.1.//
 +----
 +===== Inventory =====
 +  * A Digilent FPGA Development Board
 +    * USB Programming cables, USB UART cables, and Power Supply, as required by the board.
 +  * Vivado and Vitis installations
 +    * See [[programmable-logic:guides:installing-vivado-and-vitis]] for instructions on how to install these tools.
 +    * You also need the board files for your board. This guide is intended for use with the board files available from Digilent's vivado-library repo on Github. You can get these files using the process described in the [[installing-vivado-and-vitis]] guide. These files will also be available through the Vivado application itself in versions 2022.1 and newer.
 +
 +**Note:** //If you are using a version of Vivado that includes Xilinx SDK (2019.1 or older), check out [[vivado/getting-started-with-ipi/2018.2]].//

 +It's time to program the application project onto your board! Plug your board into your computer through its USB programming and USB UART port/s, connect an external power supply (if necessary), and turn on the board.

 +==== Next Steps ====
 +
 +At this point, your application is running, and printed messages can be seen. Congratulations, you have finished this guide!!!
 +
 +The hardware project and application created here can be used as a basis for future work. See instructions found in [[programmable-logic:guides:vitis-update-hardware-specification]] for additional information on how the hardware design can be switched out later.
