On “iCEBreaker FPGA is available on CrowdSupply”

I've been playing with a prototype version of the iCEBreaker for a couple of months. I'm very much a Verilog n00b. I've tried twice to get started with Xilinx based boards, but I've never made much headway against their toolchains. (ISE and Spartan6 the first time, Vivado and ZYNQ the second.) IceStorm is a huge improvement. I use a familiar text editor and a familiar edit-compile-download-test cycle, and I can see changes on the hardware in just a few seconds. Having a familiar dev process lets me concentrate on the digital logic. IceStorm is also open source. The developers are approachable and they respond to issues. I even found a bug and got it fixed. The iCEBreaker is based on…
