Potentially useful SW

[umarcor]

This issue was created in repo VHDL/sphinx-vhdl, which was a placeholder (now removed).

@Nic30 Hello,

there is some sphinx plugin, which can generate schematic, from HDL. d3-hwschematic sphinx-hwt (would not recommend, as it requires conversion of VHDL to a different lang. first, but this is an example of features which we can expect )

There is also SW which can generate nice preview of component IP. symbolator

There is parser which also keeps comments with AST. hdlConvertor

Together they are used in plug-in for sphinx (also called sphinx-vhdl...). This plug-in is not public, because it contains too many hot fixes for some specific codes.

@nobodywasishere I'm currently waiting for a PR to be merged, then VHDL will be supported by sphinxcontrib-hdl-diagrams, which also takes code from files and converts them into a diagram using yosys and netlistsvg.
