Austin FPGA has this to say...
Meet other FPGA developers developers in the Austin area. We're happy to discuss any aspect of development but some of us are especially interested in finding better ways of helping beginners get up to speed.
We hold monthly meetings at the Diogenes Makerspace with both physical and virtual participation. Details are in each Event's description. In between meetings we hold conversations on a Discord server.1 attendee
