DS(i) Dev App Documentation
Hey everyone! I wrote a website to document some of the DS(i) ROMs that Nintendo used to test, debug, or create the DS(i) consoles. This goes from official SDK programs to leaked factory testing ROMs.

I've always been fascinated by Nintendo's super secret programs that we were never supposed to see, and found an unsurprising lack of information on the topic online. You can find a lot of information about the ever popular TwlNmenu and NandFiler, but there are dozens more interesting programs that have never been discussed, or even mentioned.

This site is currently missing a lot of programs. I will add more pages over time (school makes it hard to do things quickly), and if there's something you've got that you don't see up there, send it my way and I'll be happy to add it. My contact info is on the main page.

The website can be accessed here.

Note: This website is a piracy free fork with no links. Do with that information what you will

(this has been mod approved btw)

Thanks. And yeah the site is uhhhh... not great behind the scenes. I need to fix it, but I'm really not sure how aside from rewriting most of it. I wrote this entire thing while not understanding CSS. A miracle is works...

Hey! This fork has been out of date for months. Happy to say I just updated it tonight!



I've added/changed a good few pages, fixed a lot of things in the site (mobile usability, less terrible HTML, better look), and finally made it easy to update the fork.



In the past I would have to find the links in each page and kill them all (grrrrr I hate TOS). Really slow and annoying to do.

Recently I finally figured out how to make use of Jekyll so now I can set the CDN directory once and all links use that. I just have to replace the link with "#" and everything should be within the rules!



Happy to say the site now stands on its own as a... wiki? Not really sure what to call my site. Anyways, it's easier for anyone to contribute and fix my mediocre writing (edit button will open to editing the text on GitHub). I've also been digging and finding more programs/versions that nobody else has mentioned. Some of that is up now and I'll be writing more over winter break. Go check it out!

Sorry for the crazy necrobump. It's my own crap and meaningful changes so hopefully it's forgivable?
