### Others
- **Cross Platform** - Can run on multiple platforms. Built with web technologies and bun backend.
- **Steam Deck Support** - Extensively tested with the steam deck. It can use flatpak installed browsers.
-- **Lightweight** - It uses the existing system browser to launch the front end, so no need to include a whole web browser.
+- **Lightweight** - It uses the window's webview as a frontend, reducing build size and ram usage.
- On Windows it first uses webview2 then your browser
- - On linux it uses WebKitGTK or a browser even from flatpak
+ - On linux it does ship with NW.js to work on most distros. A big one is the steam deck missing WebKitGTK.
- Not tested on Mac yet
- **Great for Controllers** - The UI is inspired by the switch and works great with joysticks and dpads.
- **Automatic Downloads** - Downloads roms from ROMM automatically

- I plan to add a free store where you can download all your needed emulators, the goal is to not have to leave the UI for anything.
- I really want to add matrix chat support in the app for engaging with your favorite community. Having access to so many nodejs libraries would make it quite straight forward.
- I'm sick of closed source and private store fronts, and want a way to share community currated free experiences. I'm also sick of the profit driven nature of games and promotions.
+- Being self contained, I want to avoid writing as little as possible to system and contain and manage settings in a custom changeable directory. This was mainly a side-effect of having the low storage steam deck and always running out of space on my internal hard drive.
