frontend: Disable GUI
The GUI will not be necessary for the foreseeable future. Focus will be
on implementing the virtual machine. And this commit speeds up the compile time
as well.

Pound

“i think of getting pounded when i see that [name]” Satisfied Customer

Note

Do you think the name "Pound" makes this a scam?
Do you think since the switch 2 hasn't been hacked this project is automatically a scam?
Do you think this project can't use switch 1 firmware dumps to set the foundation for when the switch 2 gets hacked?
Do you think the commits pushed to the main and arm64 branch are a scam?
Do you think the development progress posted on our discord are a scam?
If so then simply close this browser tab and move on.
if you have knowlege in Arm64 architecture please come to our server and help out. We have limited resources/time at the moment, if you want to contribute you are free to do so.

Overview

Join the Pound Discord Server!

Pound is an early-stage emulator for the Nintendo Switch 1 and 2, targeting Windows, Linux and macOS ( Intel and Apple Silicon).

Initial focus is on implementing the architectural similarities to the original Nintendo Switch. Later stages of development will address differences in hardware between the two console generations.

How to Compile Pound

See the compilation guide for detailed instructions on how to compile Pound.

Codebase

Pound reuses selected components from existing Nintendo Switch 1 emulators, primarily Yuzu.
All third-party code is clearly documented and properly attributed in the relevant parts of the repository.
