+## Developer Support
+
+Opening a [GitHub Issue](https://github.com/aws/aws-fpga/issues) is the preferred method to get support with the AWS FPGA Development Kit. In addition, the [FPGA Development re:Post Tag](https://repost.aws/tags/TAc7ofO5tbQRO57aX1lBYbjA/fpga-development) is available to find FPGA-related discussion topics from the AWS community of customers, AWS customer support, and the AWS FPGA development team.

 ## Development Flow
 After creating an FPGA design (also called CL - Custom logic), developers can create an Amazon FPGA Image (AFI) and easily deploy it to an F1 instance. AFIs are reusable, shareable and can be deployed in a scalable and secure way.
