TWiLight Menu++ is an open-source DSi Menu upgrade/replacement for the Nintendo DSi, the Nintendo 3DS, and Nintendo DS flashcards. It can launch Nintendo DS, SNES, NES, GameBoy (Color), GameBoy Advance, Sega GameGear/Master System & Mega Drive/Genesis ROMs, as well as DSTWO plugins (if you use a DSTWO) and videos.

Compiling

Compiling this app requires devkitPRO with devkitARM and libnds. Be sure you have grit and mmutil installed.

Using Docker

Using the included Docker image, you can easily compile TWiLight Menu++ without having to manually set up the required version of devkitARM using the provided PowerShell (.ps1) scripts.

The script accepts make arguments as well. For example, .\compile_docker.ps1 clean will clean the directories of all the compiled code. If you would like to build all artifacts, run .\compile_docker.ps1 package.

Please note that Docker compilation is not compatible with native compilation on Windows. You should run .\compile_docker.ps1 clean to clean the artifacts before attempting to build with Docker. If a notification appears asking you to share your drive, you must choose to enable drive sharing for Docker to work on Windows.
