Build the App using a Command prompt in the project directory. You can quickly access it by holding shift in explorer (in the Ryujinx directory) then right clicking, and typing the following command:
Run `dotnet build -c Release -r win10-x64` inside the Ryujinx project folder to build Ryujinx binaries.

- **Audio**
Everything for audio is partially supported. We currently use a C# wrapper for [libsoundio](http://libsound.io/), and we support [OpenAL](https://openal.org/downloads/OpenAL11CoreSDK.zip) (installation needed) too as a fallback. Our current Opus implementation is incomplete.

- **CPU**
The CPU emulator, ARMeilleure, emulates an ARMv8 CPU, and currently only has support for the new 64-bit ARMv8 instructions (with a few instructions still missing). It translates the ARM code to a custom IR, performs a few optimizations, and turns that into x86 code. To handle that, we use our own JIT called ARMeilleure, which uses the custom IR and compiles the code to x86.
The CPU emulator, ARMeilleure, emulates an ARMv8 CPU and currently has support for most 64-bit ARMv8 and some of the ARMv7 (and older) instructions, including partial 32-bit support. It translates the ARM code to a custom IR, performs a few optimizations, and turns that into x86 code. To handle that, we use our own JIT called ARMeilleure, which uses a custom IR and compiles the code to x86.
Ryujinx also features an optional Profiled Persistent Translation Cache, which essentially caches translated functions so that they do not need to be translated every time the game loads. The net result is a significant reduction in load times (the amount of time between launching a game and arriving at the title screen) for nearly every game. NOTE: this feature is disabled by default and must be enabled in the Options menu > System tab. You must launch the game at least twice to the title screen or beyond before performance improvements are unlocked on the third launch! These improvements are permanent and do not require any extra launches going forward.

The emulator has settings for enabling or disabling some logging, remapping controllers, and more. You can configure all of them through the graphical interface or manually through the config file, `Config.json`, found in the user's appdata\roaming\ryujinx folder.
