To learn FPGA design , you may need FPGA board like the one in the picture.
These kind of board provide many Input Switch, Output LED for you to enter and display data.
But,
With LiteX , you can use Host PC Python code to provide the data and read out the result.
Or use ILA to capture the wave form then dispay on gtkWave.
(Vandor provide these tool , too, but if you can consolidate eveything in one language and better language, why not)
So, you don't need these kind of board anymore.
But sometimes you need the IO Port, like PCIE, HSMI?, ethernet,
So pick the board with the IO you are interesting with.
