Retroputer is an emulator for a computer system that resembles machines in the 80's and 90's. However, the machine as presented did not exist in this form -- rather, the emulator seeks only to emulate the look and feel of these machines, not replicate an actual machine from the era. There are plenty of emulators that do so excellently. Instead, Retroputer has these goals:
<aside> 💡 Retroputer V2 is intended to be a lower-level faux emulator than Retroputer v1 that incorporates low level technologies such as buses and clocks. This isn't intended to be a perfect representation of physical hardware, but makes interconnects between simulated devices much easier, and also simplifies the modeling of the overall structure of the computer.

<aside> ❗ Retroputer V2 is far from complete, as is the documentation in this wiki. Take everything with huge grains of salt!
