### Is there any custom firmware?
As of July 9th 2023, **no**, not yet. However efforts are underway; an SDK for the CPU has been identified, and custom firmware is now in the very early stages of development. Most recently, an "empty shell" build of Retroarch has been demonstrated to run (no emulation cores, no video driver, no audio driver, etc. - just a bare-minimum build of the Retroarch project framework). Previously, custom code execution, access to the microSD card and display, audio/video playback, and registering button inputs have been demonstrated.

[A GitLab repo](https://git.maschath.de/ignatz/hcrtos) has been set up by `ignatzdraconis` for the work, and you can [follow along with discussion in the `Retro Handhelds` Discord](https://discord.com/channels/741895796315914271/1092831839955193987).
