Crate plastic_core 

Plastic NES Core

This is the core of the Plastic NES emulator. It contains the CPU, PPU, APU, and other components and can be used standalone to run/emulate NES games if you want to handle your own input/output.

A very simple example of how to use this crate:

use plastic_core::NES;

fn main() {
   let mut nes = NES::new("path/to/rom-file.nes").unwrap();
    
   loop {
       nes.clock_for_frame();

       let pixel_buffer = nes.pixel_buffer();
       display(&pixel_buffer);

       let audio_buffer = nes.audio_buffer();
       play_audio(&audio_buffer);
   }
}
