98.js
Web-based Windows 98 desktop recreation
98 is a web-based recreation of the Windows 98 operating system that runs entirely in the browser, replicating the look, feel, and behavior of the classic desktop environment. Built using JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, it recreates core components such as the desktop, taskbar, file explorer, and system applications with remarkable attention to detail. The project includes functional versions of programs like Notepad, Calculator, Minesweeper, and even a simulated Internet Explorer, providing an interactive nostalgic experience. It uses a virtual filesystem to store user data and supports drag-and-drop functionality, enabling users to interact with files similarly to a real operating system. The interface is highly polished, with support for themes, animations, and even hidden easter eggs that mimic the quirks of the original Windows 98 experience. While not a true emulator, it effectively simulates the user interface and behavior of the OS in a browser environment. -

AndroidNativeEmu
Allows you to partly emulate an Android native library
AndroidNativeEmu is a Python-based framework designed to partially emulate Android native libraries, enabling developers and researchers to analyze and execute native code outside of a full Android environment. Instead of emulating an entire operating system, it focuses specifically on the native layer, allowing for targeted testing and reverse engineering of shared libraries (.so files). This makes it particularly useful in security research, malware analysis, and debugging of Android applications. The framework provides tools for loading binaries, simulating system calls, and interacting with native functions in a controlled environment. By abstracting away the complexity of full device emulation, it allows faster iteration and more focused analysis of specific components. It also integrates well with Python tooling, making it accessible and extensible for custom workflows. -

FabGL
ESP32 Display Controller (VGA, PAL/NTSC Color Composite, SSD1306, ST77
FabGL is mainly a Graphics Library for ESP32. It implements several display drivers (VGA output, PAL/NTSC Color Composite, I2C and SPI displays). FabGL can also get input from a PS/2 Keyboard and a Mouse. FabGL implements also: an Audio Engine (DAC and Sigma-Delta), a Graphical User Interface (GUI), a Game Engine and an ANSI/VT Terminal. VGA output requires an external digital-to-analog converter (DAC): it can be done by three 270 Ohm resistors to have 8 colors, or by 6 resistors to have 64 colors. Composite output doesn't require external components (maybe a 5Mhz low pass filter). An unlimited number of sprites are supported. However big sprites and a large amount of them reduce the frame rate and could generate flickering. When there is enough memory (on low resolutions like 320x200), it is possible to allocate two screen buffers, so to implement double buffering. In this case primitives are always drawn on the back buffer. -

Miasm
Reverse engineering framework in Python
The Miasm intermediate representation is used for multiple task: emulation through its jitter engine, symbolic execution, DSE, program analysis, but the intermediate representation can be a bit hard to read. We will present in this article new tricks Miasm has learned in 2018. Among them, the SSA/Out-of-SSA transformation, expression propagation and high-level operators can be joined to “lift” Miasm IR to a more human-readable language. We use graphviz to illustrate some graphs. Its layout does not always totally conform with a reverse engineering “ideal view”, so please be tolerant of those odd graphs. Miasm is not the first tool to implement this feature. But, well, as the tool already had everything needed to implement DSE, it was just a matter of time before these features landed in the main branch. -

Muon SSH Terminal/SFTP client
Graphical SFTP client and terminal emulator with helpful utilities
Easy and fun way to work with remote servers over SSH. This project is being renamed as previous name "Snowflake" is confusing since there is already a popular product with the same name. Muon is a graphical SSH client. It has an enhanced SFTP file browser, SSH terminal emulator, remote resource/process manager, server disk space analyzer, remote text editor, huge remote log viewer, and lots of other helpful tools, which makes it easy to work with remote servers. Muon provides functionality similar to web-based control panels but, it works over SSH from the local computer, hence no installation is required on the server. It runs on Linux and Windows. Muon has been tested with several Linux and UNIX servers, like Ubuntu server, CentOS, RHEL, OpenSUSE, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, and HP-UX. The application is targeted mainly towards web/backend developers who often deploy/debug their code on remote servers and not overly fond of complex terminal-based commands. -

NES
NES emulator written in Go
NES emulator written entirely in Go, aimed at accurately reproducing classic Nintendo Entertainment System games in a modern, cross-platform environment. It reimplements the NES hardware in software, including CPU, PPU (graphics), and APU (audio), and then presents the output using OpenGL for video and PortAudio for sound. The emulator supports a menu mode where, if you point it at a directory instead of a single ROM, it scans all ROMs and shows a game selection screen with thumbnails fetched from an online database keyed by each ROM’s MD5 hash. Once a ROM is chosen, the emulator maps keyboard controls to NES inputs and also supports USB joysticks, letting you play with a gamepad instead of just the keyboard. Under the hood it implements several common NES cartridge mappers such as NROM, MMC1, UNROM, CNROM, MMC3, and AOROM, which together cover the majority of NES titles in circulation. -

teo-emulator
Teo is an emulator of the Thomson TO8 microcomputer
Teo is an emulator of the Thomson TO8 microcomputer for PC, running on MSDOS, Windows and Linux. The compatibility is close to 100% for softwares which don't use non emulated peripherals and don't hold physical protections. In other words, if a software doesn't work on Teo, so probably : 1. it needs the presence of another peripheral than mouse, light-pen, joystick, tape recorder and disks (so it won't run as long as this peripheral is not emulated), 2. its physical protection makes it fail. -
