If I understood correctly, the ECP5 FPGA can be designed for with open source tooling [0][1], which makes this even more awesome.

OP, if you are planning to commercialize these, try to confirm compatibility, that will definitely make it more attractive!

The examples in the repo are using the open-source yosys + nextpnr tooling.

I am indeed using fully open source tooling! Check out the makefiles in the firmware directory :)
