# Prerequisites

- [sbt](https://www.scala-sbt.org/download.html) (which relies on a Java JDK)
- [Verilator](https://verilator.org/guide/latest/install.html)
- A Java JDK

More info can be found in the SpinalHDL
[documentation](https://spinalhdl.github.io/SpinalDoc-RTD/master/SpinalHDL/Getting%20Started/getting_started.html).

# Test installation

To test code generation (this should create a file called `Counter.v`):

```
sbt 'runMain spinaltest.Gen'
```

To test simulation:

```
sbt 'runMain spinaltest.Sim'
```

This should print something like the following at the end:

```
