## Development
|
|
|
|
Most of the development happens on GitHub. It's also where [our central repository](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu) is hosted.
|
|
|
|
If you want to contribute please take a look at the [Contributor's Guide](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) and [Developer Information](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/wiki/Developer-Information). You should as well contact any of the developers on Discord in order to know about the current state of the emulator.

## Usage
|
|
You may download a precompiled binary from [our website](https://yuzu-emu.org/downloads/), or you can build it yourself from the source code.
|
|
|
|
* __Windows__: [Windows Build](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/wiki/Building-For-Windows)
|
|
* __Linux__: [Linux Build](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/wiki/Building-For-Linux)

|
**Note: macOS is no longer supported due to Apple deprecating OpenGL and their current version not supporting the OpenGL extensions we require.** ([source](https://www.anandtech.com/show/12894/apple-deprecates-opengl-across-all-oses))
