Hello everybody. :)

In the past few months, I've been slowly working on getting mashers' GridLauncher menu to work with Luma3DS and modern libctru versions, mostly just for fun and because I really like what GridLauncher originally provided. I finally got it almost fully running, to a point where it's usable.

There isn't any significant amount of new stuff. The only significant things I added are the ability to boot DS cartridges and moving the /gridlauncher folder to be inside /3ds/. Everything else was just small UI changes like removing mentions of HANS, it's obsolete after all. :gun:

If you're curious about what GridLauncher is, you can check the original thread for more details: https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-homebrew-launcher-with-grid-layout.397527/

I also recovered the original wiki for the launcher if you want to make custom themes: https://github.com/SuperDubious-SmallLabs/GridLauncher/wiki

You can also grab some themes from the original GridLauncher themes thread if you don't want to make them on your own: https://gbatemp.net/threads/mashers-homebrew-launcher-mod-custom-themes-thread.399333/

Should I use this?

It depends. If you just want to launch homebrew applications and don't care about customization, then this isn't really for you. But if you want an easier view of your homebrew applications instead of having to keep swiping your fat finger across the touch screen multiple times, and you want a more customizable, fuller launcher, then you should give it a try.

Installation

To install GridLauncher, grab the latest binary from the link below and place the .3dsx file at the root of your SD card. If you want to use it instead of HBL, simply rename it to boot.3dsx (this will replace your original HBL boot.3dsx).

Feature suggestions and bug reporting

While my original plan was to only do maintenance updates and not constantly push new features, I'd still like to hear your suggestions if you have any. Just post them in the issues tab of the GitHub repository: https://github.com/SuperDubious-SmallLabs/GridLauncher/issues

If you have any issues while using this launcher, please include as much information as possible in your issue on how you got the issue (how to reproduce it) and ARM11 dumps if you have any.

All credits goes to the original GridLauncher contributors.
