The award-winning FuseSoC is the world's most widely used package manager for chip design and powers everything from small hobbyist FPGA projects to multi-billion transistor ASIC tapeouts on leading-edge nodes.
Despite the benefits, there is often a fear associated with moving to a new system. As FuseSoC developers, we often hear "It won't work for our code base" or "we have some special requirements". Well, my friends. This presentation is for you. It is also for all of you who are already using FuseSoC but perhaps hasn't picked up how to unlock its full potential. We will look at some of the convenient features that sometimes are missed, adaptations that are often used when FuseSoC is introduced into an existing code base as well as sorting out some common misconceptions that we have come across when working closely with FuseSoC users with large code bases.
