Building a Chip-8 Emulator in JavaScript – A Beginner-Friendly Tutorial Series

Hey everyone! I’ve started a new tutorial series on building a Chip-8 emulator in JavaScript—perfect for those who want to explore emulation, low-level computing, and system design without diving too deep into complex architectures. In Part 1, I introduce what Chip-8 is, how it works, and why it’s a great learning tool for understanding CPU instructions, memory, and basic graphics rendering. Future episodes will cover writing the emulator step by step. If you’re interested in JavaScript, emulation, or just curious about how computers work at a fundamental level, check it out!
