## About
This project is a fork of the original Nestopia source code, plus the
Linux port. The purpose of the project is to make sure people who want
a standalone GUI for the Nestopia emulator have this option available.

Project Goals:
* Maintain a functional GUI release of the Nestopia emulator on major desktop platforms

Contributing/Issues:
* Contributions will be reviewed for anything related to the standalone GUI builds
* Issues related to core emulation will be closed. This project no longer maintains the core emulator. Please submit issues about core emulation upstream at https://gitlab.com/jgemu/nestopia
* When not using a tagged release, please understand that the code is volatile and nothing is set in stone.

The following platforms are supported:
* Linux, BSD, macOS, Windows

This project depends on the following libraries:
FLTK 1.3 (1.4 on macOS), SDL2, libarchive, libepoxy, libsamplerate, zlib
