v86 is an open-source x86 PC emulator that runs entirely in the browser using WebAssembly for near-native performance. It translates x86 machine code into WebAssembly at runtime, enabling users to boot and run full operating systems without installing anything locally. The emulator supports a wide range of legacy systems, including Linux, Windows 95/98/2000, FreeDOS, and various experimental OSes. It simulates essential hardware components such as CPU, memory, VGA graphics, sound cards, network adapters, and storage controllers. ...

Ruffle is an open-source emulator for Adobe Flash Player, written primarily in Rust, and targeted at both desktop applications and web browsers via WebAssembly. Its goal is to enable legacy Flash content—animations, games, interactive media—to continue running safely and reliably after official Flash support was discontinued. On the web side, Ruffle is embedded into pages or installed as a browser extension; in the desktop version, it can open .swf files directly or embed them in applications. Because it’s built with memory safety in mind, Ruffle helps avoid many of the security vulnerabilities that plagued classic Flash (buffer overflows, use-after-free, etc.). ...

...It highlights the versatility of JavaScript and WebAssembly in recreating legacy hardware environments directly within a browser. By aggregating these projects, JSEmu provides an accessible entry point for exploring different emulator implementations and comparing approaches across systems.

PCjs Machines is a browser-based emulation platform that recreates a wide range of early computing systems, including the original IBM PC and other historical machines, entirely using JavaScript. It serves both as an emulator and a digital preservation project, allowing users to interact with vintage software and hardware environments directly in their web browsers. The platform includes support for multiple architectures such as x86, 6502, and 8080-based systems, as well as minicomputers...

Play! is an open-source cross-platform emulator for Sony’s PlayStation 2 that aims to run PS2 games on a wide range of modern systems including Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, and web browsers by implementing core PS2 hardware functionality in software. It emulates primary components like the Emotion Engine CPU and graphics synthesizer, translating game code and hardware calls into host system operations, while providing users with controls to load disc images, manage states, and...

DOSBox ported to Emscripten is a web-focused port of the classic DOSBox emulator that enables legacy DOS applications and games to run directly inside modern web browsers using WebAssembly and JavaScript. Built with Emscripten, the project compiles the original DOSBox C/C++ codebase into a format that can execute efficiently in a browser environment, bringing near-native performance to web-based emulation. This allows users to launch and interact with DOS programs without installing any software locally, significantly lowering the barrier to accessing retro PC software. ...
