**Quickemu** is a wrapper for the excellent
|
||||
[QEMU](https://www.qemu.org/) that attempts to automatically *"do the
|
||||
right thing"*, rather than expose exhaustive configuration options. You
|
||||
decide what operating system you want to run, and Quickemu will figure
|
||||
out the best way to do it for you.
