Makefile tutorials & labs.

The most practical Makefile path for VLSI — built around real RTL/DV/PD workflows, not generic software builds. From the targets / rules / prerequisites / recipes model through variables, dependency management, common RTL targets, simulation automation, regression automation, filelist management, pattern rules, .PHONY, multi-tool dispatch (VCS / Xcelium / Questa / Verdi), synthesis automation, STA automation, waveform automation, hand-offs to Bash / Tcl / Python, debugging, five industry case studies, tiered interview mastery, four pre-tapeout review checklists, and the misconceptions that bite real engineers.
