mos6502

An emulator for the MOS 6502 CPU written in Rust.

Features

• Builds on stable Rust.
• Runs on #[no_std], which means it works without the standard library. It is portable, has very few dependencies, and doesn't depend on a full-fledged libc.

Usage example

#![no_std]

extern crate mos6502;
