Hi @Harald Pretl I wants to install docker https://github.com/iic-jku/iic-osic-tools I have this link but i am not understanding step by step. Please share me step by step terms or any video link. I tried till here whats to do now. @Stefan Schippers

just run ./start_vnc.sh , it will automatically download the image and start the vnc_server. Then you can access it via any web browser by going to http://localhost/?password=abc123

Dear @ALOK PRATAP SINGH Please take a look at this README, I hope it explains the necessary steps clear enough. Thanks to @PramitKumar Pal for providing help. https://github.com/iic-jku/iic-osic-tools#how-to-use-these-open-source-and-free-ic-design-tools

@Harald Pretl Does this docker also support Klayout to do custom analog layout with DRC and LVS enabled for both sky130 and GF180 ?

@vks Yes, this is installed, as far as this is a part of the sky130 and gf180 PDKs. However, it can be that some setup is not proper, as I and my team only use sky130 with magic for custom layout. If you find something not working properly, please let me know, and I try to fix. For DRC and LVS you might consider

iic-drc.sh

and

iic-lvs.sh

, at least for sky130 they work pretty well, and are actively supported by us.

@Harald Pretl I have no experience with docker and containers as such. Tried installing

IIC-OSIC-TOOLS

container on windows as per steps here but getting following message. Can you please suggest what could be the issue here ?
