Backstory: This fork is based on commit 654a31b (2022-10-26) from this fork, which was a short-lived fork of Skyscraper project after Lars retired his project.

Skyscraper focuses on RetroPie integration but it can also be used without RetroPie. However, the RetroPie-Setup has a scriptmodule to install this Skyscraper fork. In essence Skyscraper only relies on a C++ 17 toolchain and the Qt framework.
