Oh Boy! Creating a Game Boy Emulator in Rust

Ryan Levick

The magical thing about Rust is its ability to remove the fear of learning new things. My journey with Rust has led me to the world of hardware emulators - specifically old gaming machines from the 80s and 90s. Join me as we explore what it takes to implement a fully working Game Boy emulator. We'll take a look at the ins and outs of this 30 year old gaming wonder, learning a lot along the way about how computers and Rust work! By the end we'll have our emulator running in a web browser, a window on our Desktop and even a mobile phone!
