Überblick
Dependency management tool for hardware projects
Verlauf
Bender is PULP Platform's dependency manager for hardware design projects. It manages HDL package dependencies from Git repositories and local paths, resolves compatible versions, writes a `Bender.lock`, and emits ordered source sets for downstream EDA tools.
The official GitHub repository was created in May 2018 and is maintained by the PULP Platform at ETH Zurich and the University of Bologna. The README positions Bender as a tool that fits existing hardware flows instead of imposing a registry, directory layout, or simulator.
By the 0.24.0 release in January 2022, Bender had an established public release stream; releases continued through the 0.32.0 release in June 2026. The project is written and distributed as a developer CLI with crates.io, Homebrew, and Nix packaging signals.
Bender's adoption sits in the open hardware and HDL ecosystem rather than general software packaging. It is used to pin Git-based IP dependencies, handle local overrides, and generate scripts for tools such as QuestaSim, VCS, Vivado, and Verilator.
The PULP Platform affiliation gives it a notable institutional context: it serves the kind of multi-repository hardware IP workflow common in research and silicon-development groups.
A typical workflow is to create or edit `Bender.yml`, run `bender update` to resolve dependencies and write `Bender.lock`, optionally run `bender checkout`, and generate simulator or synthesis tool inputs with `bender script`.
`Bender.local` is used for local dependency overrides when developing hardware IP in place. This makes Bender closer to Cargo or Bundler in spirit than to a simulator wrapper, but specialized for HDL source ordering and EDA tool integration.
Bender is package-nerd significant because hardware projects often have dependency problems that look like software package management but with HDL-specific source ordering, include directories, defines, and simulator targets. Bender packages those concerns into a reproducible CLI.
It is also an example of package management without a central registry: dependencies can come from Git tags, revisions, or local paths, and reproducibility is carried by the lockfile.
