MartyPC, a cross‑platform emulator of early personal computers written in Rust, is accessible via the website martypc.net.

The software recreates the hardware environment of vintage IBM PC and compatible systems, allowing users to run original operating systems and applications on modern computers.

The interface displays a list of selectable systems, with options to load a system using arrow keys or mouse clicks, and to rotate the view by swiping or tapping the arrows. The emulator is built to support multiple operating systems and to provide accurate hardware emulation.

Development of MartyPC continues, and the project invites community contributions to improve compatibility and performance.
