Overview
stenzek originally designed DuckStation as a testing ground for his contributions to Dolphin.[1] However, the graphical interface is already in a state where it can be regularly used. Stenzek has even said the UI was pulled directly from Dolphin, since he himself has no experience with UI/UX. [2]
As DuckStation is in heavy development, it does not yet have a stable build.
