Could you build this?

No Porting an emulator to PS4 requires low-level console access, the PS4 SDK or homebrew exploit chain, and GPU/CPU emulation expertise. The scraped text is GitHub boilerplate, so there is little to go on beyond the tagline.

What it would actually take: A real port would need a PS4 jailbreak or homebrew entry point, a native build of the PPSSPP core against the console's SDK, and a working graphics backend mapped to the PS4 GPU API. This takes experienced emulator and console-hacking engineers working over months.
