This is an updater for Atmosphere + Hekate + Homebrew Launcher.

It does not install Atmosphere or Hekate. To do that, you should follow switchguide.xyz. This program instead updates the following files:

• fusee-primary and fusee-secondary (the main components of Atmosphere containing the bootloader and KIP files).
• bundled atmosphere exefs replacements (creport, FW version string, fatal are amongst these).
• update.bin (Hekate 4.x+ loads update.bin if it exists).

The script itself checks for updates to the script when starting as well.

Written using pyNX for the GBAtemp Switch Homebrew Bounty 2018 (Switch application).

User guide

• Install pyNX using the Homebrew browser.
• Download switchguideupdater.py from the release page.
• Copy it to your SD to the switch/pyNX folder.
• Run pyNX from the HBL and select switchguideupdater.py.

You'll need to run the updater at least once for both Hekate and Atmosphere to make it save the current version.
