Hey HN, I posted Velxio here a while back and got great feedback. Since then I've shipped a major update What's new in v2: - 19 boards across 5 CPU architectures (AVR8, Xtensa, RISC-V, ARM Cortex-M0+, ARM Cortex-A53) - ESP32 emulation via QEMU (lcgamboa fork) — real flash images, ROM function emulation, GPIO/ADC/timers - ESP32-C3 and CH32V003 run on a custom RISC-V core written in TypeScript, entirely in the browser - Raspberry Pi 3B via QEMU raspi3b — boots real Pi OS, runs Python - Realistic sensor simulation: DHT22 (40-bit protocol timing), HC-SR04 (trigger/echo), WS2812B NeoPixel (GRB decoding) - 48+ electronic components from wokwi-elements Architecture: - AVR, RP2040, and RISC-V emulation runs client-side (avr8js, rp2040js, custom TS core) - ESP32 Xtensa and Pi 3 run on backend QEMU - Compilation via real arduino-cli - React + Vite

frontend, FastAPI backend - Self-hostable via Docker, no account needed Source: https://github.com/davidmonterocrespo24/velxio (AGPLv3) Happy to discuss the emulation architecture — particularly the trade-offs between in-browser vs. backend QEMU emulation
In Velxio 2.0 – Emulate Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi 3 in the Browser
I built a small emulator project called Velxio. A fully local, open-source Arduino emulator. Write Arduino code, compile it, and simulate it with real AVR8 CPU emulation and 48+ interactive electronic components,All running in your browser. GitHub: https://github.com/davidmonterocrespo24/velxio The goal of this project was to learn more about how emulators work internally: CPU instructions, memory management, and low-level architecture. It's still experimental, but it already runs basic instructions and I'm continuing to improve it.
In Velxio, Arduino Emulator
