Quite a few real games run. Quite a few don't.
See the [Game compatibility list](https://github.com/xenia-project/game-compatibility/issues)
for currently tracked games, and feel free to contribute your own updates,
screenshots, and information there following the [existing conventions](https://github.com/xenia-project/game-compatibility/blob/master/README.md).
## Disclaimer
The goal of this project is to experiment, research, and educate on the topic
of emulation of modern devices and operating systems. **It is not for enabling
illegal activity**. All information is obtained via reverse engineering of
legally purchased devices and games and information made public on the internet
(you'd be surprised what's indexed on Google...).
## Quickstart
See the [Quickstart](https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/wiki/Quickstart) page.
## Building
See [building.md](docs/building.md) for setup and information about the
`xb` script. When writing code, check the [style guide](docs/style_guide.md)
and be sure to run clang-format!
## Contributors Wanted!
Have some spare time, know advanced C++, and want to write an emulator?
Contribute! There's a ton of work that needs to be done, a lot of which
is wide open greenfield fun.
**For general rules and guidelines please see [CONTRIBUTING.md](.github/CONTRIBUTING.md).**
Fixes and optimizations are always welcome (please!), but in addition to
that there are some major work areas still untouched:
* Help work through [missing functionality/bugs in games](https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/labels/compat)
* Add input drivers for [third-party controllers](https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/issues/1333)
* Skilled with Linux? A strong contributor is needed to [help with porting](https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/labels/platform-linux)
See more projects [good for contributors](https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/labels/good%20first%20issue). It's a good idea to ask on Discord and check the issues page before beginning work on
something.
