If somebody wants to play around with Zynq 7010's - have a look at the EBAZ4205 board. They can be bought from Aliexpress (20-30€). These are former Bitcoin Mining controllers.

Some people reverse engineered the entire thing. It can be found in GitHub. And there's an adapter plate available for getting to the GPIOs.

For a less complex entry there are also Chinese FPGAs ("Sipeed" boards which use a GoWin FPGA. They are quite capable and the IDE is free.

Xilinx tool chain is also no-cost.

For some/smaller parts. Once you start going higher than Artix or the token Kintex parts you need to pay up.
