CEmu is a third-party calculator emulator for TI-84 Plus CE / TI-83 Premium CE, designed for developers. It works on Windows, macOS, and Linux, programmed in C and C++ with Qt for performance and portability. Note that CEmu is not an official TI product.

CEmu works natively on Windows, macOS, and Linux!
