4. Done!

Compile on your own

1. Make sure your development environment is complete:
   • devkitpro, devkitARM, devkitA64
   • libnx
   • SDL2
   • for other dependencies of included submodules, check their respective pages.
2. Clone this repo: git clone --recursive https://github.com/D3fau4/Vortex.git
3. Run make or make release

Notes:

• It may not be possible to build NX-Shell right now. For more info, visit NX-Shell repo, or contact joel16.
  • For this reason, Vortex downloads NX-Shell at latest release for the time being.
  • As soon as it's possible to compile it without special requirements, makefile will be updated.
• Tinfoil is added as prebuilt, as it's not actively being developed, and the history of it is rather hazy.
• Instead of hekate_ctcaer_5.0.1.bin, you can push fusee-primary.bin for Atmosphere 0.9.2.
  • You can find it in _dist/bootloader/payloads folder.
