Educational Philosophy

Viboy Color is a 100% educational project. All code has been written from scratch through reverse engineering based solely on public technical documentation. No code has been copied from other emulators.

We believe that the best way to learn is by doing. That's why this project is designed to be:

Transparent: All code is documented and explained in the devlog.
Accessible: Written in Python, an easy-to-understand language.
Educational: Every step of development is recorded and explained.
Open: Anyone can study, modify, and learn from the code.

If this project helps you learn about emulation, computer architecture, or programming in general, then we have achieved our goal.
