Feedback welcome—especially ideas to extend it.

I started with a very simple Arduino project: two traffic lights controlling a junction (six LEDs).I refactored it by using arrays and small, modular functions, so it’s easier to read, modify, and extend.
The implementation of the round-robin arbiter uses a very clever and (again) compact algorithm.

Grandma recipe, works for me. Not a medical advice
Another option, do you want to see by yourself how caching improves code performance? You can make that on an FPGA also.
I have done some time ago a very nice course which is called From Nand to Tetris, that teaches how to go all the way from gates to a processor. My plan for the near future is to implement the NAND2Tetris processor on a Basys 3 board, and make some of the examples I mentioned (like, probing internal registers using HW tools, or seeing by yourself how a cache improves performance). I hope to make some of these things available on my site. I am the OP, but just in case, my website is https://fpgaer.tech
Well, according to these news from Intel, that's not the case. Intle announces new mid-level FPGAs and even new FPGA to compete with Xilinx RFSoCs
Monitor registers through TCL commands (via JTAG to AXI module) and/or display on Basys 3 board

And of course, who can forget the wonderful adds for the games from Infocom (Zork et al), who would "stick their graphics where the sun don't shine!". They were text based games, and very succesful on those days
