this looks so awesome! will you release it once it's done?
Yes that is the idea. Currently I'm working on this (I forgot to add the WIP preffix to the post).
Nice project, thanks!..
If you or anybody needs custom front fullsized Switch boxart-alike covers, here's the archive of 2134 pcs of them standardized in PNG, 640x393 px resolution, like this:

this is pretty awesome, ive always hated the squares, it looks too basic for a modern system
https://nintendo.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Nintendo_Switch_box_art_(North_America) this site seems to have loads of covers but i think its only ntsc covers
i am working on something similar. but its more like ulaunch and will replace the default homescreen instead of beeing a theme.
that means it wont break on updates and it will always have up to date images because its getting them from nintendo itself.
basically getting a list of installed ids on your system and with some magic it will download just the things you need.
the only thing i lack is creativity. its hard to design something new.
this is a video from my pc but its already working on my switch too.
i have siccc animations planned though
probably not but i cant tell for sure.Looks very nice! is it compatible with SXOS?
Well I have a SX Core v1 unpatched and I am willing to try it for you on the switch.probably not but i cant tell for sure.
i dont have sxos to test and i dont plan on using it anytime soon.
sure but i have like 2% of the work done. ill write my own post once i have something testable.Well I have a SX Core v1 unpatched and I am willing to try it for you on the switch.

i also dont want to hijack this thread.
my opinion is just that this isnt the best idea.
(themes that break every opdate, some "random" sysmodule and another homebrew to do the dirty work)
Hard to believe you are running something like that in the switch.
Perfect, There is a lot of covers in this site (and other resources). Very usefull thx.
Yes, the Internet is only needed to download them. But you can add your own covers. You know this is an idea that can grow if we can solve the main technical issues, adding more functionality.
It would be interesting if you could also create themes with banners, to get something like this
Currently this is possible. Maybe upload an example video of how it would look.
Something very similar to these others can also be implemented with the current state of the project:
This last one except the logo of the game at the top, the folder Indie Collection, and the information below the logo:
I was talking about this in the NXThemes with some users. Project uLaunch is very good and has great potential. It is not clear to me what the limit of what can be achieved is because I have not delved into its documentation.
I know that you can get something like these:
So basically the main difference with the NXThemes core is that with uLaunch you can create folders, and a higher level of customization of some elements. Some animations and layouts can be used too. Is excelent.
Currently we don't have any tool able to do something like this (For example highlighting one element from another by previewing its description and other metadata, but I'm sure that perhaps with uLaunch some middleware could be implemented that allows it):
Putting animated gifs or webp as background is not possible either.
Something like this is not possible right now ((I highly doubt that something can be developed without draining the battery but who knows):
The most significant advances in animations have been made in the NSX Themes community, although they are based on geometric transformations (translations, rotations, scaling) and opacity.
Where did you get Spotify?
I think the best theme they could do would be SwitchFlow. Yes, very inspired by WiiFlow. The best feature would be to choose different ways to view the covers as WiiFlow did.
