Capstone is a disassembly framework with the target of becoming the ultimate
disasm engine for binary analysis and reversing in the security community.
Created by Nguyen Anh Quynh, then developed and maintained by a small community,
Capstone offers some unparalleled features:
- Support multiple hardware architectures: ARM, ARM64 (ARMv8), Mips, PPC, Sparc,
  SystemZ, XCore and X86 (including X86_64).
- Having clean/simple/lightweight/intuitive architecture-neutral API.
- Provide details on disassembled instruction (called “decomposer” by others).
- Provide semantics of the disassembled instruction, such as list of implicit
  registers read & written.
- Implemented in pure C language, with lightweight bindings for Visual Basic, PHP,
  PowerShell, Emacs, Haskell, Perl, Python, Ruby, C#, NodeJS, Java, GO, C++, OCaml,
  Lua, Rust, Delphi, Free Pascal & Vala ready either in main code, or provided
  externally by the community).
- Native support for all popular platforms: Windows, Mac OSX, iOS, Android,
  Linux, *BSD, Solaris, etc.
- Thread-safe by design.
- Special support for embedding into firmware or OS kernel.
- High performance & suitable for malware analysis (capable of handling various
  X86 malware tricks).
- Distributed under the open source BSD license.
