This is why the emulator uses an approach known as HLE (High-Level-Emulation), in a nutshell: Instead of accurately emulating every subsystem that forms part of a component, emulate the resulting visible I/O interface instead. For example, take a disk write, instead of emulating a proper SD card we instead use the C++ standard library for I/O. Additionally we use the abstractions provided by the `fs` service to "lie" to programs about certain SD card properties. Notably this includes making up sizes for the fake SD card, giving "realistic" values or expected outputs for a given card, and so on. And instead of writing to an actual SD card, the emulator simply writes to a file. @@ -20,7 +20,7 @@ Handles everything related to audio, this is where most of the filtering and pro ## src/common/ -The [common](../src/common) folder contains just your basic pollyfills for whatever missing functionality.
