Veda is a suite of modern tools and libraries for EDA developers.
It makes you more productive in the Cadence SKILL® and SKILL++® languages.
Check Crosstwine Veda on the Web for news and updates.
Version 0.2.0 provides:
The veda command-line tool, a SKILL/SKILL++ workflow utility, documented in these manual pages, which includes support for:
Online help, accessible via:
$ veda help
$ veda help <command>Executing SKILL/SKILL++ scripts from the shell;
Setting up project workareas;
Creating, managing and testing SKILL/SKILL++ source code "packages";
Creating and updating package testing jobs on a Jenkins CI instance.
Easy to use (and reuse!) libraries, featuring extensive API documentation;
Smart IDE components and plugins.
These are not bundled as tools in this release, but power the API documentation (example) and source code highlighting (example) engine.
You can also play with a purely web-based technology preview of the SKILL® mode for the CodeMirror in-browser editor here: mini tutorial, empty editor. (Note, however, that the web editor is currently on an unrelated release schedule.)
