This repository contains a fast VHDL language server and analysis library written in Rust.

The speed makes the tool very pleasant to use since it loads projects really fast and does not consume a lot of ram. A 200.000 line VHDL project is analyzed in 160 ms on my Desktop using 8 cores and only consumes 180 MByte of RAM when loaded.

I very much appreciate help from other people especially regarding semantic analysis of VHDL. You do not need to be a programmer to help, it is even more helpful to interpret and clarify the VHDL standard and provide minimal examples and describe how they should work according to the standard.
