GameRoy: a cross platform and highly accurate Game Boy emulator
Probably it is crashing while creating the OpenGL context. I am using a fork of raw-gl-context, that is heavily unsafe, whose upstream is unmaintained, and don't have a proper error handling. Or it could be crashing a little after that, in my sprite-render crate, which is also very unsafe, and was written when I was far less experience with unsafe Rust, and don't have proper error handling either.

You could also consult the SameBoy source code which is a very accurate emulator.

Gameboy Doctor: debug and fix your gameboy emulator
Hey there! I've been working on a Game Boy emulator since last year and found the GameRoy project, which translated the PPU's logic from SameBoy, the (AFAIK) most accurate GB emulator around. I basically copied the PPU logic into my emulator and replaced the "state" property (an integer) with enums for some extra clarity.

GameRoy: a cross platform and highly accurate Game Boy emulator
So, what I have finally tried was figure out the timing from another emulator, in this case SameBoy, which appears to be the most accurate game boy emulator. In the end, I copy the timing from its ppu state maching, and its interrupt handling code. Took a lot of time figuring out how it was working.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing raw-gl-context and SameBoy you can also consider the following projects:
sprite-render-rs - A Rust Crate for Sprite Rendering (WIP)
IronBoy - A Gameboy emulator written in Rust as both a learning exercise and a love letter to the console that got me into gaming.
