Here you should be met by a set of tabs, each with a different tool. The following steps describe how to download the installer for your machine. Xilinx provides a number of development tools for their products and follows the familiar pattern of releasing a single unified installer that allows users to install any of them from a single entry point. There is also helpful documentation from Digilent, which is especially useful if you are primarily using one of their boards. If you prefer to follow the official documentation for installation, it can be found here. The subsequent Vivado 2020.2 release has addressed the issue, but still does not officially support Ubuntu 20.04. The primary issue I (unsurprisingly) ran into was that Ubuntu 20.04 is not officially supported by Vivado 2020.1, which requires a workaround that is detailed below. While it didn’t take too long to get up and running (ignoring the time waiting for the actual installation to complete), I found the existing installation documentation quite verbose, which made following along more difficult than it should have been.

I recently went through the installation process on my main development machine, where I cam currently running Ubuntu 20.04, after I purchased a Digilent Arty A7-35T development board, which is designed around the Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA.

It is a powerful tool, but can be a bit of a pain to setup and use. Vivado is Xilinx’s IDE for HDL synthesis and analysis.
