==Overview==
QEMU can act as an emulator for multiple architectures, or as a hypervisor if running an x86 guest on an x86 host. As a hypervisor, it can utilize KVM on Linux or Intel HAXM on Windows for hardware acceleration of virtual machines, which can result in near-native performance. As an emulator, it uses dynamic recompilers, which makes it much faster than [[Bochs]]. Its maturity and performance have resulted in it being used as a basis for emulators for the Xbox, PS4, and iOS.
QEMU completely lacks a GUI and must be run from the command-line. The official QEMU wiki includes links to various dedicated frontends, including those for Windows users. Linux users may prefer to instead use a virtual machine management system such as virt-manager that controls QEMU/KVM.
