uLaunch

The themeable Nintendo Switch HOME Menu Nintendo forgot to make

This isn't some kind of HOME Menu extension, injection, patch, etc.: uLaunch is an entire reimplementation (of key components), 100% open-source!

For more detailed information, check uLaunch's GitHub repository: https://github.com/XorTroll/uLaunch

Releases: https://github.com/XorTroll/uLaunch/releases/latest
Last version: v1.1.0 (supports Atmosphère 1.8.0, and firmware 19.X)

Let uLaunch be the HOME Menu Nintendo never bothered to make!
