-This guide will show the process of installing and configuring the Vivado development environment, used for developing projects to run on Digilent FPGAs. In addition to the installation, Vivado will be pointed at Digilent's board support files, which are used to make the process of creating a new project significantly faster. In addition, the board files make it significantly easier to add a variety of peripherals (such as DDR memory) to a project. Xilinx SDK, used for developing C/C++ projects that target your hardware designs created in Vivado, will be installed as part of this process.+This guide will show the process of installing and configuring the Vivado development environment, used for developing projects to run on [[https://digilent.com/shop/boards-and-components/system-boards/fpga-boards/|Digilent FPGAs]].
