bebop v0.1.0

The first public release of bebop — an agile simulation framework for NPUs, built in Rust with a unified CLI across multiple simulation backends.

Supporting Backends

• bemu — Functional emulator backed by Spike (riscv-isa-sim), supports both baremetal (M-mode) and Linux (S-mode with proxy kernel) execution
• verilator — Cycle-accurate RTL simulation with FST waveform dumping
• p2e — FPGA prototyping flow for end-to-end hardware validation

What's Next

More co-simulation optimisation from this release!
