This is the official documentation for Recalbox. We hope you find the answers to your questions.
We have several lists on hardware compatibility in Documentation :
Compatible Boards : Lists the different boards on which Recalbox can be installed and their compatibility with supported emulators.
Compatible PCs : Lists PC configurations compatible with Recalbox.
Compatible Devices : Lists some useful devices that have been tested and may or may not be compatible with Recalbox.
We suggest that you consult in the Documentation :
the Recalbox Manual, to understand the basics of how the operating system works.
You can also consult the Emulator section for more information on the emulators present in Recalbox.
If certain terms seem too technical to you, the Glossary can be a precious ally.
For some specific configurations :
Refer to the Tutorials section.
You can also consult for additional information :
the Recalbox website (https://www.recalbox.com).
the forum (https://forum.recalbox.com).
Recalbox is an open source project and so free !
As such, the people who work on it do so on their free time. This means that it may have a few bugs or maybe not as "plug and play" as a full-fledged commercial product.
So the best advice we can give you is to be curious, to read the documentation, the tutorials, the forum and especially to save things before doing any manipulation (the outcome of which would be uncertain for you).
The Recalbox Gitbook is divided into several Sections.
Presentation of Recalbox and Gitbook.
