There is quite many smaller FPGA development/evaluation boards at not too unrealisic prices. You can find a good and up to date overview of the available boards at
https://joelw.id.au/FPGA/CheapFPGADevelopmentBoards

It is a quite different feeling to see the design running live on an FPGA than purely simulated.

This is not to say that simulation is overrated. Simulation is a very important aspect of FPGA development. You do not get nearly the same insight in what is happening when the design is running in the FPGA.

Note: I strongly recommend starting with an alternative that do have onboard USB programmer. Makes life less tangled.

Hi there,

I am currently a student on internship with lots of spare time in the evenings/weekends. If it's not too late, I would like to be a part of this project.

Regards,

William Yates

Thanks for the info, hno ( Are you Joel ?? ).

The problem with the Taar project is that it being a new-from-scratch project, there is no point of reference with an existing processor and therefore I don't know how many gates/cells/LUTs I must have in a FPGA for Taar. Also, I am more a designer than an engineer.
