Information for newbies.

Nintendo DS homebrew software is software written for the Nintendo DS by hobbyist programmers, as opposed to software written by a software/game production company. Software is typically written using unofficial development kits and is used on the DS via third-party rewritable game cartridges, or on SD cards.

Since the Nintendo DS is not sold with a storage medium, a third-party storage solution is required to store homebrew.

The earliest solutions for homebrew employed a storage device in the GBA cartridge slot (referred to as "SLOT-2") and a booting tool in the DS cartridge slot (referred to as "SLOT-1"). These two-tool combinations are commonly referred to as "SLOT-2" or "1st Generation" devices. Later on, cards that only utilized the DS slot to store and run homebrew software were developed. These devices are referred to as "SLOT-1" or "2nd Generation" cards.

Many homebrew programmers have encountered difficult to navigate obstacles while developing their projects as a result of the DS's relatively weak CPU and little RAM compared to PCs of the time. The introduction of the Nintendo DS Memory Expansion Pak (included with Nintendo DS Browser) and the recent inclusion of extra RAM in some Slot-2 devices (SuperCard SD/CF/Lite, EZ3-in-1), as well as the 1GB of NAND memory in the Acekard RPG, has allowed programmers to overcome some of these obstacles.

Homebrew DS applications are generally programmed using C/C++. A popular toolchain is devkitARM. A few libraries that make programming easier include libnds, libfat, dswifi and PAlib. libfat helps developers write to a FAT file system on the homebrew storage device while dswifi allows developers use WiFi on the DS. Several tutorials have been written about the various aspects of the system. fpc4nds is a port of FreePascal for cross compile for DS.

Popular development packages:

• devkitPro offers devkitARM, libnds, dswifi, libfat and maxmod.

Tools and libraries:

• PAlib, "Programmers Arsenal". As of April 8 2009 PAlib 090408 supports r25 of devkitArm and 1.3.2 of libnds. Previously the toolchain maintainers strongly recommended avoiding PAlib because it did not work with the latest versions of devkitARM and libnds.
• DS Game Maker, a shareware frontend for PAlib that appeals to users new to the homebrew scene.
• Maxmod, an addon library which supports playback of MOD, S3M, XM, and IT modules.
• libfat, library for using the Filesystem (successor of GBA NDS FAT)
• libellen, a library addon for libnds which allows easy development of basic concepts such as sprites and backgrounds[4]
• GBA NDS FAT, outdated Library for using the Filesystem
  
• Other tools and libraries:
  
• MicroLua, a new library which uses Lua scripts. Scripts can be written and compiled on the DS itself, for handy development.
• DSLua, an old outdated Nintendo DS library using Lua (.lua) programmed scripts.
• Python, a converted Stackless Python port, which runs Python (.py) scripts. A updated version of this available at DSPython
