-==User guide==
-===FAQ===
-'''Q. What are sigpatches?'''
-Sigpatches allow your Switch to install and run unofficial NSP file (digital titles that appear on the home menu).
-Note that you must use CFW to launch these applications even after installation as sigpatches are always required to do so.
-'''Q. Which sigpatches should I chose?'''
-If you're entering Atmosphere by injecting the "fusee-primary.bin" payload, download the appropriate sigpatches.
-If you're using Hekatee and "fss0", get the Hekate sigpatches.
-'''Q. Where do those sigpatches come from?'''
-The sigpatches are, as of now, pulled directly from the GBAtemp threads. You can find the links the homebrew uses [https://hamletdufromage.github.io/sigpatches-updater/sigpatches.html here]. Because those links are updated with a cron job, the links might be down for a little bit right after new sigpatches are uploaded to GBAtemp.
-If this persists and the links remain broken please open an issue and i'll investigate.
-'''Q. Legality?'''
-Please only use sigpatches to install backups of games you own, or homebrew applications you are allowed to install. Using sigpatches is legal, and I am not hosting sigpatches myself. This tool merely automates a process that is routinely done by thousands of Switch owners.
