FAQPage Schema

How do I compile a Game Boy Color game using GBDK-2020?▼

Yes, you can run unit tests for Game Boy Color development without an emulator by compiling and executing them directly with `gcc`. This Skill automates that process, allowing you to validate code logic using standard C development toolchains on your host machine.

What is the best way to clean build artifacts in a GBDK project?▼

Yes, makefiles can automate the entire Junk Runner development workflow by handling compilation, cleaning, and testing. This Skill leverages makefiles to coordinate GBDK-2020 builds and `gcc` unit tests, streamlining the process from source code updates to test validation.

Do I need specific hardware to test a Game Boy Color game built with GBDK?▼

No, you do not need specific hardware to test a Game Boy Color game built with GBDK. This Skill compiles and runs unit tests using `gcc` on your development machine, bypassing the need for physical hardware or an emulator during the testing phase.

How do I ensure deterministic builds for a Game Boy Color project?▼

You ensure deterministic builds for a Game Boy Color project by cleaning generated artifacts before compiling and running tests. This Skill automates that workflow, removing old files and rebuilding the `.gb` executable consistently using makefiles and GBDK-2020.
