@eine how will we continue?

A doubt that I have: is only related to free and open-source projects/material? (which is what I am more interested in), or all the related with HDL in general? (must all the FPGA vendors be in the list? each board in the market? all the available conferences?).

And, of course, we need to define when is exactly considered awesome? :P

Most of the existing items were taken from existing awesome lists. Apart from that, see subdir todo. For instance, https://github.com/hdl/awesome/blob/develop/todo/ben.md are the items that were in Ben's awesome list, minus the ones that are already separate items. See https://github.com/hdl/awesome/blob/develop/todo/pending.md too.

I think that modifying the gohugo theme is not a priority. As we start adding relevant content, we might find additional requirements or features that we'd like to display differently. Therefore, I think we should gather the list of "frontend" enhancements in an issue, but go ahead with adding data meanwhile.

I don't think the awesome list should be limited to free and open source projects. However, contributions are motivation driven. That is, someone needs to consider adding commercial resources more interesting than other FLOSS resources, and devote the time to that. Potentially, yes, all vendors, existing boards and conferences could be added.

Regarding the awesomeness, to me almost any HDL related project is awesome. Because HDL design is awesome. Hence, I would not take it as a filter to leave contributions out. The "curated" part is related to how we organize and order the entries in each category. That can be some "ranking" based on size, starts, contributors, activity, etc. Nevertheless, I'm not worried about it for now. I believe that it can be as interesting to just browse the content, as we sometimes do when "getting lost" in wikipedia.

Note that not a single contribution was refused in any of the existing lists because "not being awesome enough". Only because they were out of scope, which is not the case here.

OK with all. One PR per entry? Or is ok to group a few?

It's ok to group them ;)
