Compile a project
Compiling a project with Plunify is super easy.

- Select your software version, we just chose the latest version

Pending projects and progress are shown in the Results tab. The compiled project will be saved in the output folder, and you'll get an email when the job is done. Typical processing time is XXXX.
Programming the CPLD board:
