### About

A Citra fork with new features and hacks which are experimental and may not be present in Azahar.

### Azahar; Isn't it more up to date?

Correct. Azahar is still the reccomended choice for most people, however if you want an alternative which may have exclusive features and hacks which are not present on Azahar, feel free to try this fork.

## Installation

Grab the appropriate release for your operating system of choice from the `Releases` section of the page

> [!NOTE]  
> For Windows, we reccomend MSYS2 since it doesnt need the `Microsoft Visual C++ runtime` in order to work
