citra

Citra is a term that can refer to several different things depending on context. In technology, Citra denotes an open-source, cross-platform emulator for the Nintendo 3DS. Initiated by volunteers and maintained by the Citra Project, it enables many commercial and homebrew 3DS titles to run on personal computers and other devices. The project focuses on accuracy and performance and provides features such as configurable graphics backends, shader support, save states, and netplay. Citra supports Windows, macOS, and Linux, and its development is community-driven and released under an open-source license. As with all emulation, users must own a legal copy of any software they run.

In Indonesian and Malay languages, citra means image, depiction, or impression, and it is commonly used in everyday speech to refer to reputation or public image. It is also used as a feminine given name in Indonesia and other parts of Southeast Asia.

In broader use, "Citra" may appear as a proper noun in various contexts, including business, media, and culture, reflecting its meaning of image or representation.
