Amiga emulator for the web: vAmigaWeb 4.0
vAmigaWeb is an Amiga emulator for web browsers or as a progressive web app. The new version is now based on the core of vAmiga 4.0 and therefore also supports "Workspaces": these are resource packages that contain the complete Amiga configuration, installed ROMs, floppy disks and hard disks and, unlike the previous "Snapshot" format, are no longer tied to specific versions of vAmiga but will work with all future versions.
In the future, it is planned to export all created workspaces to a ZIP file and import such a file so that all created configurations can be easily backed up and shared with several devices.

Project introduction: Floppy disk reader for AmigaOS 4
Andrea 'afxgroup' Palmatè has adapted Robert Smith's project "DrawBridge" (amiga-news.de reported) for reading Amiga floppy disks with the help of an Arduino board so that it can now also be used under AmigaOS 4 (GitHub project page). Above all, he had to make changes to the USB communication.
There will most likely also be a commercial version of the "Waffle Reader" for a few euros, although the project will remain open source.
