## What it is
Kyty is an early-stage open-source emulator for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles written in C++. It can run some simple PS4 games and PS5 homebrew, though with graphics glitches, crashes, and low FPS.

## Use cases
- run simple PS4 games on a Windows PC
- test PS5 homebrew software without a console
- experiment with console emulation internals
- contribute to an early-stage PS4/PS5 emulator project

## When to choose
- you want to try PS4 games or PS5 homebrew on Windows and accept instability
- you want to study or contribute to console emulator development

## When to avoid
- you need reliable, full-speed emulation of commercial PS4/PS5 titles
- you need audio, network, or video playback support
- you are not on Windows 10 x64

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: experimental
- function: simulation, graphics, gui
- domain: gaming-tools, simulation, cross-platform
- platform: windows, cpp
- tags: ps4-emulator, ps5-emulator, console-emulation, vulkan, qt, homebrew
