+# CMake Options
+
+To change these options, add `-DOPTION_NAME=NEWVALUE` to the command line.
+
+- On Qt Creator, go to Project -> Current Configuration
+
+Notes:
+
+- Defaults are marked per-platform.
+- "Non-UNIX" just means Windows/MSVC and Android (yes, macOS is UNIX
+- Android generally doesn't need to change anything; if you do, go to `src/android/app/build.gradle.kts`
+- To set a boolean variable to on, use `ON` for the value; to turn it off, use `OFF`
+- If a variable is mentioned as being e.g. "ON" for a specific platform(s), that means it is defaulted to OFF on others
+- TYPE is always boolean unless otherwise specified
+- Format:
+  - `OPTION_NAME` (TYPE DEFAULT) DESCRIPTION
+
+## Options
+
+### Dependencies
+
+These options control dependencies.
+
+- `YUZU_USE_BUNDLED_FFMPEG` (ON for non-UNIX) Download a pre-built and configured FFmpeg
+- `YUZU_USE_EXTERNAL_FFMPEG` (ON for Solaris) Build FFmpeg from source
+- `YUZU_DOWNLOAD_ANDROID_VVL` (ON) Download validation layer binary for Android
+- `YUZU_DOWNLOAD_TIME_ZONE_DATA` (ON) Always download time zone binaries
+  - Currently, build fails without this
+- `YUZU_TZDB_PATH` (string) Path to a pre-downloaded timezone database (useful for nixOS and Gentoo)
+- `YUZU_USE_BUNDLED_MOLTENVK` (ON, macOS only) Download bundled MoltenVK lib
+- `YUZU_USE_BUNDLED_OPENSSL` (ON for MSVC, Android, Solaris, and OpenBSD) Download bundled OpenSSL build
+- `YUZU_USE_EXTERNAL_SDL2` (OFF) Compiles SDL2 from source
+- `YUZU_USE_BUNDLED_SDL2` (ON for MSVC) Download a prebuilt SDL2
+
+### Miscellaneous
+
+- `ENABLE_WEB_SERVICE` (ON) Enable multiplayer service
+- `ENABLE_WIFI_SCAN` (OFF) Enable WiFi scanning (requires iw on Linux) - experimental
+- `ENABLE_CUBEB` (ON) Enables the cubeb audio backend
+  - This option is subject for removal.
+- `YUZU_TESTS` (ON) Compile tests - requires Catch2
+- `ENABLE_LTO` (OFF) Enable link-time optimization
+  - Not recommended on Windows
+  - UNIX may be better off appending `-flto=thin` to compiler args
+- `USE_FASTER_LINKER` (OFF) Check if a faster linker is available
+  - Not recommended outside of Linux
+
+### Flavors
+
+These options control executables and build flavors.
+
+- `YUZU_LEGACY` (OFF): Apply patches to improve compatibility on some older GPUs at the cost of performance
+- `NIGHTLY_BUILD` (OFF): This is only used by CI. Do not use this unless you're making your own distribution and know what you're doing.
+- `YUZU_STATIC_BUILD` (OFF) Attempt to build using static libraries if possible
+  - Not supported on Linux
+  - Automatically set if `YUZU_USE_BUNDLED_QT` is on for non-Linux
+- `ENABLE_UPDATE_CHECKER` (OFF) Enable update checking functionality
+- `YUZU_DISABLE_LLVM` (OFF) Do not attempt to link to the LLVM demangler
+  - Really only useful for CI or distribution builds
+
+**Desktop only**:
+
+- `YUZU_CMD` (ON) Compile the SDL2 frontend (eden-cli)
+- `YUZU_ROOM` (OFF) Compile dedicated room functionality into the main executable
+- `YUZU_ROOM_STANDALONE` (OFF) Compile a separate executable for room functionality
+- `YUZU_STATIC_ROOM` (OFF) Compile the room executable *only* as a static, portable executable
+  - This is only usable on Alpine Linux.
+
+### Desktop
+
+The following options are desktop only.
+
+- `ENABLE_LIBUSB` (ON) Enable the use of the libusb input frontend (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)
+- `ENABLE_OPENGL` (ON) Enable the OpenGL graphics frontend
+  - Unavailable on Windows/ARM64
+  - You probably shouldn't turn this off.
+
+### Qt
+
+Also desktop-only, but apply strictly to Qt
+
+- `ENABLE_QT` (ON) Enable the Qt frontend (recommended)
+- `ENABLE_QT_TRANSLATION` (OFF) Enable translations for the Qt frontend
+- `YUZU_USE_BUNDLED_QT` (ON for MSVC) Download bundled Qt binaries
+  - Not recommended on Linux. For Windows and macOS, the provided build is statically linked.
+- `YUZU_QT_MIRROR` (string) What mirror to use for downloading the bundled Qt libraries
+- `YUZU_USE_QT_MULTIMEDIA` (OFF) Use QtMultimedia for camera support
+- `YUZU_USE_QT_WEB_ENGINE` (OFF) Use QtWebEngine for web applet implementation (requires the huge QtWebEngine dependency; not recommended)
+- `USE_DISCORD_PRESENCE` (OFF) Enables Discord Rich Presence (Qt frontend only)
+
+### Retired Options
+
+The following options were a part of Eden at one point, but have since been retired.
+
+- `ENABLE_OPENSSL` - MbedTLS was fully replaced with OpenSSL in [#3606](https://git.eden-emu.dev/eden-emu/eden/pulls/3606), because OpenSSL straight-up performs better.
+- `ENABLE_SDL2` - While technically possible to *not* use SDL2 on desktop, this is **NOT** a supported configuration under any means, and adding this matrix to our build system was not worth the effort.
+- `YUZU_USE_CPM` - This option once had a purpose, but that purpose has long since passed us by. *All* builds use CPMUtil to manage dependencies now.
+  - If you want to *force* the usage of system dependencies, use `-DCPMUTIL_FORCE_SYSTEM=ON`.
+
+See `src/dynarmic/CMakeLists.txt` for additional options--usually, these don't need changed

+
+In general, PRs are the preferred method of tracking patches, as they allow us to go through our standard triage, CI, and testing process without having to deal with the minutiae of incremental patches. However, we also understand that many people prefer to use raw patches, and that's totally okay! While we currently don't have a mailing list, we do accept email patches. To do so:
+
+1. Make your changes on a clean copy of the master branch
+2. Commit your changes with a descriptive, well-formed message (see the [commit message docs](https://git.eden-emu.dev/eden-emu/eden/src/branch/master/docs/Development.md#pull-requests)), and a proper description thoroughly explaining your changes.
+  * Note that we don't need to know all the individual details about your code. A description explaining the motivation and general implementation of your changes is enough, alongside caveats and any potential blockers.
+3. Format your patch with `git format-patch -1 HEAD`.
+4. Email us with the subject `[Eden] [PATCH] <brief patch description...>`, with a brief description of your patch, and the previously-formatted patch file as an attachment.
