More emulators the better.

Agreed

Wow, it's rare to see a girl coding an emulator ;D Keep working on it, good luck!

Decaf is open source and now the project is dead

Sorry if I'm misinterpreting what you've said, but this project had a commit about an hour ago.

Then my bad. But progress of decaf looks very slow.

But progress of decaf looks very slow.

I don't think this was ever really intended to be a commercial emulator though, it's more of a study project for documentation from what I can see. Slow progress is slightly more forgivable when it comes down to what it is.

Haha, I guess so. Thanks for the support everyone! ❤

Also, I should mention, this is very early in development and isn't an emulator intended to be compared with yuzu and Ryujinx.

I dunno that I'd say "rare," but definitely more abnormal. But yeah, it's always great to see progress towards gender parity in terms of coding interest

Best thought, have a great time ❤

Why some people can't think something new? Why they just stick to old? I always appriciate the new work. I know how it feels. I used to coding java before but I had to discontinued it due to some reason (not money support, it was no one tried to look into my project releases). But I will start it again.

A Woman creating an emulator now that's hot.

I'm making some really good progress with commercial/retail games, stay tuned for updates on that.

Happy to follow the progress, you have technical documents for your progress? Reverse engineering?

So, curious: since you're already at the point of loading retail games, are you using code/experience from Yuzu as a base and branching out from there? Or have you just been working on this for a long time on the background?

I guess you could say that? I worked on yuzu in the past on my own and learned a lot there which is helping me progress with SphiNX (not stealing anyone's code of course, just referencing from the knowledge I personally picked up from yuzu).

Ah, neat! I was wondering if it was something like that

So then, comparing your experience working with an open-source team-written emulator, what do you think of going it alone with code that only you can see?

I don't know to be honest, this'll probably be open source in the future but, it's really just something I wanted to do to kinda skill myself. I love the portability of the Nintendo Switch (especially during travelling) and for me personally, the console will always be better than any emulator, even if it's my own.
