Begin to configure your own repository:
Example repository files: DOWNLOAD
It contains "packages.json" file and the 3DScraft homebrew as example.
It is ready to be used :)

P.S. Remember to compact you package.json file using an online tool like this: http://jsoneditoronline.org/
the shortcut is Ctrl+Shift+\

Cool! I will try it out when I get home.

@simonepsp In the "category" in the packages.json file, are there specific categories I should use? Or can I just make my own? Because I want to classify my Simple-Calc homebrew as an application, but there is only one example, labeled "games" for the category.

Categories are currently the following:
  • games
  • media
  • emulators
  • tools
  • misc

It would definitely be great if the app scanned existing HB on the card showed which ones you have installed and also used the version to highlight which ones had new updates available. An update all button in the future would also be appreciated or queued downloads/updates :) Another thing that would be awesome is matching your theme with the Homebrew Grid launcher so we have a consistent look and feel.

Thanks guys :)
P.S. Someone knows how to change the thread title? I'd like to replace "[WIP]" with "[RELEASED]". Thanks

Do you mean the red screen that appears for about 1 second when launching installMii ?
