Microcomputer - 8080 Emulator
Web-based Intel 8080 CPU emulator with retro front panel interface
Visit gzalo.github.io ↗What is Microcomputer - 8080 Emulator?
A browser-based emulator that recreates the experience of programming a 1970s-style microcomputer. Users interact with a virtual front panel featuring toggle switches and LED indicators to input machine code, set memory addresses, and step through CPU execution. The emulator supports the Intel 8080 instruction set and includes preset programs like Fibonacci sequences and counter demonstrations.
The maker built this alongside a physical replica microcomputer powered by a Raspberry Pi Pico. The web emulator was created almost entirely using Claude Code (Opus 4.5), which generated both the core emulator logic and a WebAssembly version compiled with emscripten.
