# Uxn
A [stack-based VM](https://wiki.xxiivv.com/site/uxn.html), written in ANSI C.
## Setup
If you wish to build your own emulator, you can create a new instance of Uxn like:
```
#include "uxn.h"
Uxn u;
if(!bootuxn(&u))
return error("Boot", "Failed");
if(!loaduxn(&u, argv[1]))
return error("Load", "Failed");
if(!init())
return error("Init", "Failed");
evaluxn(u, u->vreset); /* Once on start */
evaluxn(u, u->vframe); /* Each frame
```
