  • dosbox-staging

    DOSBox Staging is a modern continuation of DOSBox with advanced features and current development practices.

  • If you bought your PC in last ~10 years or so, then DOSBox Staging is going to work well enough for any DOS game you will throw at it. Plus, it perfectly emulates Gravis Ultrasound as well.

  • build-djgpp

    Build DJGPP cross compiler and binutils on Windows (MinGW/Cygwin), Mac OSX and Linux

  • It is possible to cross compile to DOS using DJGPP, which gives you a modern day toolset and easily lets you write protected mode programs. I've done a tiny bit of experimenting with it and it's a pretty nice way to easily build DOS programs from the comfort of all your regular modern tools.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
