Citra is an experimental open-source Nintendo 3DS emulator/debugger written in C++. It is written with portability in mind, with builds actively maintained for Windows, Linux and macOS.
Citra emulates a subset of 3DS hardware and therefore is useful for running/debugging homebrew applications, and it is also able to run many commercial games! Some of these do not run at a playable state, but we are working every day to advance the project forward. (Playable here means compatibility of at least "Okay" on our [game compatibility list](https://citra-emu.org/game).)
Citra is licensed under the GPLv2 (or any later version). Refer to the license.txt file included. Please read the [FAQ](https://citra-emu.org/wiki/faq/) before getting started with the project.

### Releases
Citra has two main release channels: Nightly and Canary.
The [Nightly](https://github.com/citra-emu/citra-nightly) build is based on the master branch, and contains already reviewed and tested features.
The [Canary](https://github.com/citra-emu/citra-canary) build is based on the master branch, but with additional features still under review. PRs tagged `canary-merge` are merged only into the Canary builds.
Both builds can be installed with the installer provided on the [website](https://citra-emu.org/download/), but those looking for specific versions or standalone releases can find them in the release tabs of the [Nightly](https://github.com/citra-emu/citra-nightly/releases) and [Canary](https://github.com/citra-emu/citra-canary/releases) repositories.
Currently, development and releases of the Android version are in [a separate repository](https://github.com/citra-emu/citra-android).
A Flatpak for Citra is available on [Flathub](https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.citra_emu.citra). Details on the build process can be found in [our Flathub repository](https://github.com/flathub/org.citra_emu.citra).
### Development
Most of the development happens on GitHub. It's also where [our central repository](https://github.com/citra-emu/citra) is hosted.
If you want to contribute please take a look at the [Contributor's Guide](https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/wiki/Contributing) and [Developer Information](https://github.com/citra-emu/citra/wiki/Developer-Information). You should also contact any of the developers in the forum in order to know about the current state of the emulator because the [TODO list](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SWIop0uBI9IW8VGg97TAtoT_CHNoP42FzYmvG1F4QDA) isn't maintained anymore.
If you want to contribute to the user interface translation, please check out the [citra project on transifex](https://www.transifex.com/citra/citra). We centralize the translation work there, and periodically upstream translations.
