Purpose: binjgb is a Game Boy and Game Boy Color emulator implemented in C, with browser support.
Browser build: The project runs in a browser using WebAssembly, and its demo lets users upload a game file to play.
Emulation support: The README describes CGB support as “Hacky-but-passable” and Super Game Boy support as “Mostly-there.”
Timing: The emulator is described as cycle accurate and as passing many timing tests.
Cartridge hardware: Supported cartridge controllers include MBC1, MBC1M, MMM01, MBC2, MBC3, MBC5, and HuC1.
Save features: It supports saving and loading battery backup data and emulator states to files.
Playback controls: The listed controls include fast-forward, pause, single-frame stepping, rewind, and seeking to a specific cycle.
Display and audio: Users can toggle individual audio channels and the background, window, and sprite layers.
Embedding: The README explains how to copy the JavaScript, WebAssembly, HTML, and CSS files to a web server to embed the emulator in a page.
Touch controls: The browser emulator displays an on-screen gamepad on devices that support touch events.
Build requirements: The README lists CMake and SDL2 as build requirements, and says the debugger uses Dear ImGui.
Platforms: The README provides build instructions for Linux, Mac, and Windows, and also documents a WebAssembly build.
License: The repository includes an MIT license that permits use, copying, modification, distribution, sublicensing, and sale, subject to its conditions.
Notable limitations: The README marks the debugger as work in progress and describes CGB and Super Game Boy support as incomplete.
