LibreLane: Looking to the future

on YouTube ↗15m

" summary

LibreLane positions itself as a modular, Python-based successor to OpenLane that preserves simple config while adding immutable state semantics so designs can branch without rerunning everything, a Python API for custom steps and plugins, and a Nix-based reproducible packaging path (Docker optional, FSY Foundation hosts binaries). It already targets Sky130, GF180MCU and IHP SG13, can be used with proprietary PDKs, runs in Jupyter, and is deployed by Tiny Tapeout, Chip Foundry and wafer.space.
