No software is include but you can download the xilinx webpack for free.

The D2E is a very nice, cheap development kit. It doesn't come with any software, but the Xilinx WebPack should get you up and running in no time. I've been using one for the last 4 months to develop a project at work. The product page for the D2E has a link to a Webpack demo project at: **broken link removed**. The link is in the bottom right hand corner of the page and is called "Reference Design" This demo is great for making sure you can acutally talk to the board and download a design to it.

could you provide link to the above software, Digilent has broken that link. Please give some example or tutorial as starting point

To use D2E or D2SB from Digilent, you should:
1. Download Webpack from www.xilinx.com
2. Download reference manual and reference designs from www.digilentinc.com.
3. Use Webpack to implement sample designs on D2E, or you can use constrain file in reference design to your design.
