Elifoot 98: 2 Open Source Clones Compared
elifoot98web runs the original, unmodified Elifoot 98 DOS executable inside the browser via js-dos virtualization rather than reimplementing its logic, adding a mobile-responsive interface and browser-based save export. EliFUT is instead a native Android reimplementation that uses FIFA 15 Ultimate Team player data rather than Elifoot 98's own database, built partly as a reference showcase of period Android development practices (Dagger, RxJava, Retrofit).
