torzu is a fork of yuzu, the world's most popular, open-source, Nintendo Switch emulator — started by the creators of Citra.
It is written in C++ with portability in mind, and I plan to actively maintain builds for Linux, Android and Windows.

## Compatibility The emulator is capable of running most commercial games at full speed, provided you meet the [necessary hardware requirements](http://web.archive.org/web/20240130133811/https://yuzu-emu.org/help/quickstart/#hardware-requirements). It runs most Nintendo Switch games released until the date of the Yuzu takedown. ## Development Most of the development happens on [Dark Git](http://y2nlvhmmk5jnsvechppxnbyzmmv3vbl7dvzn6ltwcdbpgxixp3clkgqd.onion/). It's also where [our central repository](http://y2nlvhmmk5jnsvechppxnbyzmmv3vbl7dvzn6ltwcdbpgxixp3clkgqd.onion/torzu-emu/torzu) is hosted. If you want to contribute, please take a look at the [Contributor's Guide](http://y2nlvhmmk5jnsvechppxnbyzmmv3vbl7dvzn6ltwcdbpgxixp3clkgqd.onion/torzu-emu/torzu/wiki/Contributing) and [Developer Information](http://y2nlvhmmk5jnsvechppxnbyzmmv3vbl7dvzn6ltwcdbpgxixp3clkgqd.onion/torzu-emu/torzu/wiki/Developer-Information). To clone this git repository, you can use these commands given tor is installed and running: git -c http.proxy=socks5h://127.0.0.1:9050 clone http://y2nlvhmmk5jnsvechppxnbyzmmv3vbl7dvzn6ltwcdbpgxixp3clkgqd.onion/torzu-emu/torzu.git cd torzu git submodule update --init --depth 1 --recursive Alternatively, you can clone from the [GitHub mirror repository](https://github.com/litucks/torzu): git clone https://github.com/litucks/torzu.git --depth 1 --recursive Note that above repository may be taken down any time. Do not rely on its existence in production. This project incorporates several commits from the [Suyu](https://suyu.dev) and [Sudachi](https://github.com/sudachi-emu/sudachi) forks (but cleaned up due to the typically mediocre code/commit quality from both projects) as well as some custom changes, including lowered minimum boost library version requirements and faster fibers. ## Building * __Linux__: [Linux Build](http://y2nlvhmmk5jnsvechppxnbyzmmv3vbl7dvzn6ltwcdbpgxixp3clkgqd.onion/torzu-emu/torzu/wiki/Building-for-Linux) * ~~__Windows__: [Windows Build](http://y2nlvhmmk5jnsvechppxnbyzmmv3vbl7dvzn6ltwcdbpgxixp3clkgqd.onion/torzu-emu/torzu/wiki/Building-for-Windows)~~ * ~~__Android__: [Android Build](http://y2nlvhmmk5jnsvechppxnbyzmmv3vbl7dvzn6ltwcdbpgxixp3clkgqd.onion/torzu-emu/torzu/wiki/Building-For-Android)~~ * ~~__macOS__: [macOS Build](http://y2nlvhmmk5jnsvechppxnbyzmmv3vbl7dvzn6ltwcdbpgxixp3clkgqd.onion/torzu-emu/torzu/wiki/Building-for-macOS)~~ (Only Linux builds are available for now.
