Rust for Wii U Homebrew
README.md

Rust on the Wii U

Caution

EXPERIMENTAL: Expect bugs, unexpected behaviour, changing APIs, and incomplete documentation.

Note

Currently, rust-wiiu is developed and tested solely on a Linux system. Scripts or other platform-specific elements might need some changing to work on other platforms. If you find an incompatibility, feel free to create an issue or submit a fix via pull request.

To get more information or you want to know how to get started, take a look at Book for U. If you want to contribute, take a look at our Contributing Guidelines.

Goal

The goal of this project is to create a simple way to write Wii U homebrew software in Rust by providing a complete, Rust-native toolchain for CafeOS, the operating system of the Wii U.

Acknowledgements

We would like to thank the contributors to devkitPro, wiiu-env, and the entire Wii U homebrew scene. Without your work, this project would not be possible.
