On the one hand Vivado is not entirely terrible considering that it can get some work done, but on the other hand it's beyond me why it's lacking the most basic needs of software development.

Zero support for source control? SoC have no examples, why can't they systematically provide an hello world example (blink a LED) with their development boards? The IDE itself has close to zero doc and there is no help on the internet, it takes 3 freaking days for an experienced developer to figure out how to create a project.

Theres a load of documentation, videos and examples, both on github maintained by xilinx as well as on xilinx.com. For example: https://www.xilinx.com/support/university.html and linked from there is a complete course in getting started with all materials, slides and docs : https://www.xilinx.com/support/university/vivado/vivado-work...
