Some portions of Amspirit have been developed in conjunction with [[Longshot]] while he was writing his [[Compendium]]. Modified versions of Amspirit have been used to test some theories when writing the document. Even if Longshot didn't took part in Amspirit's development, the emulator benefited from the research for the Compendium, as well as the Compendium from Amspirit.
In 2024 2025 Amspirit is the most accurate Amstrad CPC emulator on the [[Z80]], [[CRTC]] (types 0,1,2,3,4) and [[Gate Array]] or [[Asic]]. [[FDC]], [[AY]] and [[8255 PPI chip|PPI]] were less worked on, by lack of testing tools and documentation. It passes almost every [[The Logon Shaker|Shaker]] tests. This makes it the best choice when one needs a robust test platform when developing Amstrad CPC programs on a PC.
