Gameboy
Full featured Cross-platform GameBoy emulator by Rust
Mohanson GameBoy is a minimalist Game Boy emulator project focused on clarity, experimentation, and educational value rather than full compatibility or performance optimization. It is designed as a clean implementation of the Game Boy architecture, typically written in a high-level language such as Python or Rust depending on the version, making it approachable for developers studying emulator design. The project emphasizes core components such as CPU instruction decoding, memory management, and basic graphics rendering, providing insight into how the original hardware operates. It is often used as a learning tool for understanding low-level system emulation, including timing, interrupts, and cartridge handling. Compared to more advanced emulators, it may lack full feature parity or optimization, but it compensates with readability and conceptual transparency. Its modular structure allows developers to extend or modify individual components for experimentation. -

Medusa
An open source interactive disassembler
Medusa is a disassembler designed to be both modular and interactive. It runs on Windows and Linux, it should be the same on OSX. This project is organized as a library. To disassemble a file you have to use medusa_text or qMedusa. Medusa requires the following libraries: boost >= 1.55 (system, filesystem, thread, date_time), OGDF (required git), and Qt5 >= 5.2 for the GUI. You also need CMake for compilation and a C++11 compiler (VS2015 update 2 on Windows). Git is optional but allows to clone remote repository for specific features. If you do not wish to install the various dependencies on your system, you can use this docker image instead. Even though it is working out of the box, you may want to customize it to suit your needs or for added security (e.g. restrict ssh access to public key authentication only). -

MetroBoy
A repository of gate-level simulators and tools for the original Game
MetroBoy is a collection of highly experimental and extremely low-level Game Boy simulators that aim to replicate the original hardware at the gate and transistor level rather than through traditional high-level emulation. The project includes multiple related implementations, such as GateBoy and LogicBoy, which simulate the internal circuitry of the Game Boy chip based on reverse-engineered die images. This approach allows for an unprecedented level of accuracy, capturing even subtle electrical behaviors and timing quirks that are typically abstracted away in standard emulators. However, this level of detail comes at a significant performance cost, making the simulator much slower than conventional emulators. The project is primarily intended for research, hardware preservation, and deep technical exploration rather than everyday gameplay. It also includes extensive testing frameworks to validate behavior against known hardware benchmarks and test ROMs. -

MiniStack
Ministack: Free, open-source local AWS emulator
MiniStack is an open-source local AWS emulator designed as a lightweight, fully free alternative to tools like LocalStack, enabling developers to replicate cloud environments directly on their machines. It emulates over 35 AWS services through a single unified endpoint, allowing developers to test applications, infrastructure, and CI/CD pipelines without needing real cloud resources. One of its defining characteristics is its use of “real infrastructure” where possible, meaning services like databases and container orchestration are backed by actual technologies such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, and Docker instead of pure mocks. The system is designed to be drop-in compatible with existing AWS tooling, including boto3, Terraform, AWS CLI, and other SDKs, making migration seamless for existing projects. MiniStack also prioritizes efficiency, with a significantly smaller footprint and faster startup time compared to alternatives, making it ideal for local development environments. -

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. -

QEMU
iPhone 11 emulated on QEMU
QEMU is a specialized fork of the QEMU emulator designed to emulate Apple iPhone hardware, particularly devices based on the T8030 chip such as the iPhone 11. It extends QEMU’s general-purpose machine emulation capabilities by introducing support for Apple-specific hardware components and boot processes. The project enables researchers to boot and run versions of iOS, including the ability to restore firmware images and interact with the system through debugging tools. It relies on dynamic binary translation and system-level emulation to simulate the ARM-based architecture used in modern iPhones. Due to the complexity of Apple’s ecosystem, the emulator requires extensive patching of the kernel and firmware to function correctly, making it primarily a research and experimentation tool. It has been used in security research contexts to explore iOS internals, including kernel behavior and system services. -

SimpleNES
An NES emulator in C++
SimpleNES is a lightweight, educational Nintendo Entertainment System emulator written in C++ that focuses on demonstrating the core architecture and behavior of classic console emulation. It replicates the essential components of the NES, including CPU execution, graphics rendering, and audio playback, allowing users to run original .nes ROM files on modern systems. The project supports a subset of cartridge mappers, which means it can successfully run a significant portion of early NES games while still being limited compared to full-featured emulators. Its implementation emphasizes clarity and modularity, making it especially useful for developers or students interested in understanding how emulation works at a low level. The emulator integrates libraries such as SFML for window management and rendering, providing a simple but functional graphical output. -

pokegb
A gameboy emulator that only plays Pokemon Blue, in ~50 lines of c++.
pokegb is an extremely compact and specialized Game Boy emulator written in C++ that is intentionally designed to run only Pokémon Red and Blue, rather than providing general-purpose compatibility. The project is notable for its extreme minimalism, with an implementation of roughly a few dozen lines of code, making it closer to a proof of concept or code-golf experiment than a traditional emulator. It achieves functionality by tailoring the emulator specifically to the requirements and behavior of Pokémon games, avoiding the need to fully emulate all Game Boy features. Despite its simplicity, it is capable of rendering graphics, handling input, and maintaining game state sufficiently to allow basic gameplay. The project highlights how domain-specific constraints can drastically reduce complexity in emulator design. It also serves as an educational demonstration of how emulation can be simplified when targeting a single application. -
