# Information on donations
RetroDECK is nothing without our dependencies without them this project and many others like us cannot exist. Without them RetroDECK can not run any games at all, it is their software that make this possible. If you do not want to donate to RetroDECK and you might want to donate to the Frontend, art assets, a specific emulator or engine. We support you no matter what, whatever choice you take from this list will be a good one for us all.
RetroDECK is nothing without our dependencies without them this project and many others like us cannot exist. Without them RetroDECK can not run any games at all, it is their software that make this possible. We always strive to do more cooperation between projects for the betterment of RetroDECK and Linux as a whole.
**Please note:**
If you do not want to donate to RetroDECK and you might want to donate to the Frontend, art assets, a specific emulator or engine. We support you no matter what, whatever choice you take from this list will be a good one for us all.
We are trying to list current and future software we want to include in RetroDECK here and not everything is added to RetroDECK proper yet. More things will be added all the time. There are even more emulators, software, front-ends, and assets out there that are not part of the RetroDECK project for various other systems. This is not a complete list of all Emulators or Frontends for the entire internet.
**If you feel passionate about a specific emulator / engine / other always make sure you donate to them directly and not via proxy. No FOSS project should be the arbiter of another projects funds.**
