Überblick
Waveform viewer, supporting VCD, FST, or GHW format
Verlauf
Surfer is a Rust waveform viewer for hardware-development waveforms, supporting VCD, FST, GHW, and FTR-style inputs. Official documentation describes it as a configurable native and web-capable viewer with a separate server mode named surver.
Surfer's official changelog says the project is still in the 0.x phase and treats releases as mostly symbolic snapshots on a six-week release cycle. Official GitLab release metadata shows early public release tags in 2024, followed by rapid feature growth through 2025 and 2026.
The README says native builds are recommended for day-to-day use, while a browser-hosted version exists for trying the tool. The documentation also notes package-manager availability for some Linux distributions and Homebrew, matching the supplied Homebrew and Nix package facts.
Surfer is used to inspect HDL simulation waveforms locally, through a browser/WebAssembly build, or through surver client-server mode when waveform files live on another machine. Its feature list emphasizes snappy zooming, command-line interaction, configurable colors, waveform translations, VS Code integration, and remote/server support.
Package nerds care about Surfer because it is part of the modern Rust-and-open-EDA tooling wave: a native GUI/TUI-adjacent developer tool with cargo installation, Homebrew packaging, web artifacts, and platform-specific binary concerns. It packages the everyday debugging surface for HDL developers rather than the compiler itself.
