    Chisel: A Modern Hardware Design Language (by chipsalliance)

  • check out https://github.com/chipsalliance/chisel. It's based on Scala. Compiles to verilog and that compiler itself is based omMLIR & LLVM. Doesn't get much more modern than that.

  • clash-ghc

    Haskell to VHDL/Verilog/SystemVerilog compiler

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • QuartzHDL

    Hardware description language with Rust-like syntax

  • Quartz is pretty cool. https://github.com/Artentus/QuartzHDL

  • Silice

    Silice is an easy-to-learn, powerful hardware description language, that simplifies designing hardware algorithms with parallelism and pipelines.

  • Have a look at Silice, it's brilliant.
