Installation: By far the easiest way to install this software is to go to use the following link. You will need to register, but it is free. This is serious professional software, not some watered down educational junk. Be warned the full package is nearly 14.2 gigabyte installed!

For instructions visit: http://www.nhn.ou.edu/~bumm/ELAB/DigiLab_software.html

Recall that you can also come into the ELAB and use one of the Elab Laptops.

Please see this site for the example to familiarlize you with the design flow in Vivado. You will load the files of an existing project, generate two different types of programming files (*.bit and *.bin), and program your Basys3. [link here]
