<h2>The free, open-source Arduino emulator that runs in your browser</h2>
<p>Write Arduino code, compile it, and simulate it with real AVR8 CPU emulation and 48+ interactive electronic components — all running locally in your browser. No cloud, no latency, no account required.</p>
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Real ATmega328p (AVR8) emulation at 16 MHz via avr8js</li>
<li>Raspberry Pi Pico (RP2040) emulation via rp2040js</li>
<dd>Yes. Velxio is free and open-source under the GNU AGPLv3 license. A commercial license is available for proprietary integrations.</dd>
<dt>Does Velxio work offline?</dt>
<dd>The simulation engine runs entirely in the browser. Compilation requires the local arduino-cli backend. Self-hosted deployments work fully offline once running.</dd>
<dt>Is Velxio a Wokwi alternative?</dt>
<dd>Yes. Velxio is a free, self-hosted alternative to Wokwi. It uses the same avr8js and wokwi-elements open-source libraries but runs on your own machine.</dd>
<dd>Arduino Uno (ATmega328p / AVR8), Arduino Nano, Arduino Mega 2560, Raspberry Pi Pico (RP2040), ESP32-C3 (RISC-V), and more. 17 boards in total.</dd>
