Kernel that only runs an NES emulator

Quality: 8/10 Relevance: 8/10

Summary

This article describes the Nintendo Entertainment Kernel project, a minimal kernel designed to run a NES emulator without an operating system. It covers the goals (bare-bones kernel, single-program execution), the build/testing workflow (cross-compiler, GRUB/multiboot, QEMU), and the repository structure. It serves as a practical example of bare-metal development and open-source hardware/software experimentation.
