A Theme and Splashscreen Manager for the Nintendo 3DS, written in C.

Dependencies

• Make, Git and PKG-Config
• devkitARM, which can be installed following the instructions here.
• jansson, libvorbisidec, libpng, and libarchive, which can be retrieved from devkitPro pacman.
• A recent build of makerom and the latest release of bannertool. These must be added to your PATH.

Building

First of all, make sure devkitARM is properly installed - $DEVKITPRO and $DEVKITARM should be set to /opt/devkitpro and $DEVKITPRO/devkitARM, respectively.
After that, open the directory you want to clone the repo into, and execute
git clone https://github.com/astronautlevel2/Anemone3DS (or any other cloning method).
To install the prerequisite libraries, begin by ensuring devkitPro pacman (and the base install group, 3ds-dev) is installed, and then install the dkP packages 3ds-jansson, 3ds-libvorbisidec, 3ds-libpng, 3ds-lz4, 3ds-libarchive and 3ds-curl using [sudo] [dkp-]pacman -S <package-name>. System wide packages make, git and pkg-config are also needed.

After adding makerom and bannertool to your PATH, just enter your directory and run make. All built binaries will be in /out/.
