 mynes is a NES emulator inspired by 100th coin NES test [video.](https://youtu.be/oYjYmSniQyM) The goal is to make an emulator which passes all of the test, but in a code base which is very intuitive to understand. As well as minimal (memory wise) and performant. 
 
 To achieve these goals these are the restraints:
-- 1 no external dependancies outside of X11 (for making a window/displaying the screen), Unity (for testing) and standard C/POSIX libs

 - 2 C99 only
-- 3 minimal use of abbreviations etc in code + doxygen code comments within .h files.

 - 4 using my own custom [shmake]() C build/project management script (this project is also acting as a way for me to dogfood shmake)
 - 5 8-space indentation plus other [crisp-style]() C code.
