Harden
Harden is the fancy industry word that means to take your HDL and using a tool like OpenLane turn it into the GDS2 files necessary for manufacture by a foundry.
Course feedback
I would recommend this course to people who don't have any awareness of open source hardware development. It can be a bit of an eye opener, a lot of people in industry have a disconnected impression of what the landscape really is.
