RetroArch is the reference implementation of the libretro API.It is free, open-source, cross-platform software, licensed under the GNU GPLv3.

It is described as a front-end for emulators, game engines, video games, media players and other applications, designed to be fast, lightweight, portable and without dependencies.

RetroArch runs programs converted into dynamic libraries called libretro cores, using several user interfaces such as command-line interface, a few graphical user interfaces (GUI) optimized for gamepads (the most famous one being called XMB, a clone of Sony’s XMB), several input, audio and video drivers, plus other sophisticated features like dynamic rate control, audio filters, multi-pass shaders, netplay, gameplay rewinding, cheats etc.

RetroArch has been ported to many platforms.[4][5] It can run on several PC operating systems (Windows, OS X, Linux), home consoles (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U, etc.), handheld consoles (PlayStation Vita,Nintendo 3DS, etc.), on smartphones (Android, iOS, etc.), embedded systems (Raspberry Pi, ODROID, etc.) and even on web browsers by using the Emscripten compiler.
