This is a pretty big infrastructure change. @dcvz - would you mind joining out Discord and discussing this with me more in depth. My username is "Joelle (Lonkle)" on Discord. Here's the invite link: https://bit.ly/altmember-delta-general-chat |

Background
Delta is made up of individual cores for specific emulators -- basically one project that includes other projects via cocoapods. Delta also has all other delta cores in different repositories making it hard for other contributors to coordinate additions.
The aim of this PR is to optimise the project setup, generation + compilation - while also bringing in the cores that live in other repos to make it easier for others to contribute (inspired by this tweet from @rileytestut )
What does this PR do?
.xcodeprojand.xcodeworkspaceyou define the projects, their targets and their relationships all using Swift [example: MelonDSDeltaCore/Project.swift].Tuist adds some benefits to the workflow for developing something like Delta - 1) no more conflicts in xcodeproj but more importantly 2) with their caching mechanism allows for quick compilation times and provides a "focus" mode where you can focus on one target and all other targets are replaced with pre-compiled versions.
I think this change makes this project more accessible and makes it easier for others who don't have ownership to the repos to try and contribute to this project.
Other changes that have been made
As part of the changes, I've also renamed
[Platform]DeltaCoreinto[EmulatorName]DeltaCore. I think this makes it easier to be able to allow multiple cores for one platform (similar to the current DS setup) where the users can choose which one to use. I think going fromN64DeltaCoretoMupen64PlusDeltaCoreis a right step towards this (but is debatable).Checklist
It currently compiles and runs, but crashes immediately since it imports frameworks (cores) which are not there yet.
How to run
tuist generateto create workspace!NOTE: I'm using a version of
Tuistnot released yet in which I've added some changes to support.s(assembly source files) which is needed to properly generate this project. I can help you set up this part if there's no new version of Tuist before this branch is being checked out by others.
