Eden v0.2.0-RC1 is released. Eden is the world's most popular open-source Nintendo Switch emulator, forked from the Yuzu emulator — started by former Citron developer Camille LaVey and the Eden team. It is written in C++ with portability in mind, and we actively maintain builds for Windows, Linux and Android.

Eden Changelog:
This release contains several new features and UX improvements, notably:
Updates and DLC without installing to NAND
A grid and icon-only view for desktop
Direct mod import from a folder or zip file
Turbo and Slow mode toggles
And, of course, your usual dose of performance improvements, bug fixes, and regression fixes from earlier versions.
If you wish to see the full changelog, check out https://git.eden-emu.dev/eden-emu/eden/compare/v0.1.1...v0.2.0-rc1 as always.
Enjoy, and happy (late, for our more eastward friends) Valentine's Day!
Universal
Updates and DLCs can now be selected and used without having to install them to NAND
On Android, this is done in Settings -> Manage Game Folders -> "+" -> External Content Folder
On Desktop, this is done in Settings -> General -> External Content
Added configurable speed-up and slow-down hotkeys
On Android, this is located in the Quick Settings menu
Some frequently-used sets and maps have been replaced with a faster implementation
The web token and username are now generated automatically
The console and battery serial are now generated automatically
This may safeguard against adversarial mods or programs attempting to determine if they are running on an emulator.
Improved JIT caching and page performance
Fixed Super Mario All Stars game switching
Fixed booting on some games that require an attached microSD card
Fixed regressions in Sonic x Shadow and NSMBU Deluxe
Fixed flickering and performance in Luigi's Mansion 3 (again)
Renderer
Improved rendering performance on Mali-based chipsets
Improvements to macOS/MoltenVK surface handling
Added an option to specify the target frame pacing
This improves frame pacing in situations where the monitor refresh rate and game FPS don't match.
Fixed persistent ExtendedDynamicState-related graphical glitches that would occur on Windows
Desktop
Added a grid view
Game names can be turned off for a TV-like icon-only view
This can be accessed in the View menu
Added the ability to import mods and cheats from a folder or zip file
The game list now scrolls smoothly with a mouse wheel, and can be horizontally shift-scrolled as well
Fixed Nintendo controllers having incorrect axis ordering
Android
Removed the now-redundant LRU Cache option
Added a button to the home screen to launch the Switch home menu
Added profile management, ported from the desktop implementation
Fixed some issues with Quick Settings
Added GPU debug logging
Internal
The minimum Vulkan version is now 1.4.321
The build system is more or less stable now, and changes thereof should slow down for the foreseeable future.
Packages
Targets
Each build is optimized for a specific architecture and uses a specific compiler.
aarch64/arm64: For devices that use the armv8-a instruction set; e.g. Snapdragon X, all Android devices, and Apple Silicon Macs.
amd64: For devices that use the amd64 (aka x86_64) instruction set; this is exclusively used by Intel and AMD CPUs and is only found on desktops.
Compilers
MSVC: The default compiler for Windows. This is the most stable experience, but may lack in performance compared to any of the following alternatives.
GCC: The standard GNU compiler; this is the default for Linux and will provide the most stable experience.
PGO: These are built with Clang, and use PGO. PGO (profile-guided optimization) uses data from prior compilations
to determine the "hotspots" found within the codebase. Using these hotspots,
it can allocate more resources towards these heavily-used areas, and thus generally see improved performance to the tune of ~10-50%,
depending on the specific game, hardware, and platform. Do note that additional instabilities may occur.
