Hey everyone,

I've not much to say about the project except that it's a work in progress. Flask will aim to be something like the Cydia package manager where it can download homebrew cia files and install them. On top of this, it will also check for updates for itself and other applications installed on your system on startup. I'm a bit worried to post this thread because it's not exactly done or anything major has been implemented, but here is the link to its Github. Please feel free to contribute toward this project. I'm trying to finish up Turtle: Invaders and get back to Idiot afterwards. The former will not have netplay unfortunately as it has become too strenuous to deal with.

It's written in C++ and I hope you guys will help me move this project along!

Cool! I was planning to do something like this, but it was going to be called brewShop/hbShop.
I think I'll be helping you with this one instead.

Gotta say the concept for this app is wonderful!
I was wondering how much of a larger scope will this have in terms of apps to update?

Brewman is kind of -- from what I saw -- unorganised in a sense and not really "alive" if that makes sense. No offense to Cruel of course! This will only work with cia files since they're commonly made and most users actually have a cfw or a9lh at this point.

Ah I've been wanting something like this! I doubt I can be of much use though, maybe I could look into making a half decent gui if that's wanted. /shrug I'm no good at programming :'D

Nice. Can you Compile it Please? I dont have Linux
it would be nice if you released the .cia file , i have issues with portlibs so i can't compile it
It's funny, you always see posts like this in "WIP" or "In Development" threads. OP most likely hasn't released a CIA for a reason, if you can't compile it yourself, you probably shouldn't be running it, what with it being a WIP and all...

why do you even feel the need to answer me if this isn't gonna help at all? i have asked for one thing, and my request wasn't referred to you of course, I know it is only a wip and I am surely not dying for not being able to use it , i just pointed it would have been nice if he compiled a .cia just to try it out, and if he doesn't answer me i will understand my self he isn't going to do it , so please do not start pointless polemics

So there's a thing called 'updates' which are useful for others to know about how something's going. Here's one of those: https://streamable.com/w0qt

This is the loading screen for . . reasons that I need to say: thread to load the bgm so it takes hardly any time to load, cache json data (making application classes so you can download/install/view them), and just for being fancy.
