Programming in binary is quite complex, therefor we provide an assembly language\r\n2. The assembly language should stay close to the opcode's actual representation in memory\r\n\r\n## Dependencies\r\n\r\nThe emulator has the following dependencies\r\n\r\n* [SDL 2.0](https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL) a cross-platform development library designed to provide low level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, and graphics hardware.\r\n\r\n## IDE Integration\r\n\r\nThere is a plugin for vim and neovim. Another alternative is to use my own text editor YATE that has built in language support.\r\n\r\n[![Vim](https://github-readme-stats-beryl-phi.vercel.app/api/pin/?username=FrederikTobner\u0026repo=chip8.vim\u0026theme=dark)](https://github.com/FrederikTobner/chip8.vim)\r\n[![YATE](https://github-readme-stats-beryl-phi.vercel.app/api/pin/?username=FrederikTobner\u0026repo=YATE\u0026theme=dark)](https://github.com/FrederikTobner/YATE)\r\n\r\n## License\r\n\r\nThis project is licensed under the [GNU General Public License](LICENSE)\r\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ffrederiktobner%2Fchip-8","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ffrederiktobner%2Fchip-8","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ffrederiktobner%2Fchip-8/lists"}
