BrewMan is a homebrew installer and manager for the Nintendo 3DS. Currently supports only homebrew in 3dsx format.

Features

Homebrew repository hosted on Github so there is little chance of the app dying in the future.
HTTPS support, handles SSL encryption so hosted files can be on Github releases (or elsewhere).
Supports archive formats for extraction/installation: *.tar.(xz|bz2|gz) *.zip *.rar *.7z.
Github repository has PR whitelist so that homebrew authors can modify their own applications and instantly have it merged to make updates easier to distribute.
Nice UI.
Managable download queue.
Up to 5 screenshots so users can see before downloading.

Installation

Download and extract the latest release to the root of the SD card.

The program must be located at /3ds/BrewMan/BrewMan.3dsx or it will not function properly (and it will warning you accordingly).

User guide

The application will fetch the repository from BrewRepo which you can download the homebrew that are available.
