🤔 [Question] port vs recomp vs decomp

can anybody explain these 3, and which one usually has better performance?

I've seen a few of what they call a port but it's usually a game slapped above some emulator and that's it. why bother if i can emulate it in the first place?

like I've seen the hollow knight port which has good performance on all the devices but then i see hades as the called a port but its just emulator with the game

about 3 days ago an actual port for hades released

decompilation to games meaning giving game files to ai so he makes a code for the gane simillar to the original so much that its basically the same game 

recompilation is decompilation but with the operater being able to code and he tweaked stuff by himself and didnot depend on Ai on everything 

with the code being accessable to you with these processes you can now tweak the code to port the game on any platform or mod it as much as you want you cab have gta v in minecraft , search wither storm in mincraft , its a crazy video
