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've always looked at Magic and it was basically impenetrable to me. So I was really happy to learn how to actually use it and understand how to make an ASIC. I found found the course materials very easy to follow and the discord conversations were also very useful.
