    MII Apple //e Emulator for Linux

  • I wrote my own pet Apple IIe emulator for linux fairly recently [0]. It works well well, even if it doesn't try to emulate an exact cycle accurate video mode, instead, it cheats and do it line by line. I think it is a good tradeoff between quality of emulation and CPU spent doing it... Only some demo will fail to display properly, all the games and tools and applications I tried works just fine.

    I mostly did my emu due yo the rather poor quality I found for linux emulators I've seen, the 'goto' one is linapple, but the codebase is rather crusty.. I wanted a cleaner casebase to hack on, without the baggage -- more in the style of my own AVR emulator [1].

    I've got a very big patchset to push 'soon' with a new UI library (that will be a topic of its own!) and a bunch of new features and improvements...

  • AppleWin

    Port of AppleWin Emulator with Native macOS UI (by sh95014)

  • Check out Mariani, a port of AppleWin (Windows) for macOS and Linux. It's open-source, cycle accurate and emulates a fairly good number of devices: https://github.com/sh95014/AppleWin

    The last version finally has a debugger. It lacks the killer feature of Virtual II though: the ability to mount a folder. This is gold for cross development.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
