- Review [pynq.io](http://pynq.io)
- Get a PYNQ supported board (PYNQ-Z2 recommended)
- Follow the the [getting started](http://pynq.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started.html?_ga=2.168166561.1006490704.1594903239-207261584.1556208265) section

[GitHub - Xilinx/PYNQ\_Workshop](https://github.com/Xilinx/PYNQ_Workshop)

Others are welcome to add any resources they find useful. I would also be interested to hear about any difficulties you have learning about PYNQ. E.g. Which parts were hard for you? Where could we add more materials to help?
