    You can either decide to learn VHDL/Verilog, or use something like nmigen. I recommend learning either Verilog or VHDL anyway, so you can at least read and understand existing designs, but I personally use nmigen.

    Alternatively, you can just use Vivado to build the bitstream and then use alternative tools like https://github.com/trabucayre/openFPGALoader and http://xc3sprog.sourceforge.net/ to upload the bitstream to your FPGA. This is what I do since I use nmigen myself.
