As Cyan said it won't happen. The dev abandoned the project. Sad but true. Always loved the GUI of n1dus. It's still my fav installer and will stay being it as long as I manage to resist to update to 7.x :)
Me too, just two thing to add on it : Multi & USB installer :)

I don't know why we can abandoned this great and beautifull project, this homebrew is amazing :(

@Cyan please, do something :(

I just do not understand something:
https://github.com/lordelan/n1dus has sources. What's the problem to adapt them to 7.0.x? Changes are minimal. Just replace mounting nsp by syscall to direct reading as it already done in other projects.

Also, adding USB install not a big task because all code already written in another open source projects. Just add it here.

Do if you can. My github repo (that you just linked to) is just a fork. Since the original dev abandoned the project I was fearing that he might take it down at some point, that's why I forked it. I'm not the dev. But as I said: Do add those "minimal changes" and I'm sure a few ppl (including me) will appreciate it! :)

Why not use blawars already existing tool, dz?

It's very nice and there are other nice title installers too

Just seems there are a few core users that still like n1dus

I'll fix it this weekend if its still broken.

thank you, that would be really awesome - I know a lot of us would be grateful - appreciated

It would be awesome if this was updated for 7x!

Two notes for anyone who looks at it and wants to fix and update it:

1. Should include the simple fix to prevent deletion on failed install as with the version AnalogMan shared: https://gbatemp.net/threads/dopus-becomes-n1dus.520780/page-3#post-8335332

2. If the following could be fixed easily it would be really nice: n1dus can only perform 22 installations consecutively, if you install a 23rd title n1dus will give an error message and stop reading free space on your device. The Switch itself will also have errors and crash when you return to the main menu. I'm sure I remember Adubbz tinfoil used to have a similar problem when installing multiple titles, not sure if it's related to this.
