This project provides a user-friendly web interface for GBVideoPlayer2, ideal for those who prefer graphical interfaces over command-line operations. Powered by Python Flask, the backend enables users to easily upload video files through the web UI, which are then seamlessly converted into GBC ROM files. With the inclusion of a Dockerfile, the process of acquiring and configuring the necessary dependencies is streamlined.

• Python + Flask
• GBVideoPlayer2
• RGBDS
• FFmpeg
• Any C compiler such as GNU Make

• Debian or Ubuntu for the backend setup. Alternatively, you can utilize Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) on Windows 10/11.
