Source code and binary is available on GitHub:<br />
==Compatibility==
https://github.com/mashers/3ds_hb_menu
This is compatible with New and Old 3DS consoles (*hax 2.5).


There are also a couple of forks of this project by others who are contributing code ([https://gbatemp.net/members/373326/ @RedHat] and others). You can either access their forks from GitHub and download their updates, or wait a short while after their updates and their commits will be merged into the main gridlauncher branch, posted here and made available in the online updater.
No longer works correctly after ninjhax 1.1, possibly due to migrating the code base to the latest version of ctrulib.

When logging issues, please do not just post the issue you are having. I.e. please do not post "the launcher is crashing." It is impossible to diagnose and fix bugs with such limited information. To investigate reported issues, I need ALL of the following information:

* 3DS region (EUR/USA/JAP/AUS.....)
* Precise FW version
