About Skyline

Skyline is designed to provide an accurate, performant, and user-friendly emulation experience through an ARM Compatibility Layer and System Emulation.

What is Skyline Edge?

Skyline Edge is an early-access build of Skyline with all the latest features that we're working on, as a perk for subscribing to our Patreon. Learn more by reading the introductory blog post.

It should be noted that all Skyline features (even Edge) are open-source, we're committed to being FOSS even with monetization.

How does Skyline differ from Skyline Edge?

While Skyline Edge is subscription-only, Skyline will forever remain free. We provide free builds without Edge-exclusive features, these builds are generally two weeks behind Edge in terms of features.

Who develops Skyline?

The Skyline Project, while currently led by Mark, is composed of a team of open-source developers. See the Team section for more information.

Where does the name come from?

The Nintendo Switch™ system software is codenamed Horizon. Skyline is a synonym and alludes to that software.

How can I contribute to Skyline?

As an open source project, the Skyline team greatly encourages contributions of any kind. If you'd like to contribute, join the Discord and read the Contributing Guide.
