Thanks Adam I am not building a custom FPGA board. I will be using the Red Pitaya and ZCU 111 to build custom projects and applications I can do with these boards. I am sorry if I didn't make that clear.
I was just checking how to proceed further since I got all the tutorials to work and have a basic idea now. I was not aware of the last year's workshop. It would have been amazing to attend that. I would look at the yellow block tutorials as you mentioned in the meanwhile.
