Vita homebrew are written with the unofficial SDK, which is a modified ARM EABI toolchain. You get access to all the same public APIs found in the official SDK (which is available only to Sony licensed developers) as well as many private APIs which allows, for example:
- Change device clock speed from the default 333MHz up to 444MHz
- Access the memory card, internal user partition, and other filesystems
- Allocate executable memory for JIT or dynamic recompilation
Visit the VitaSDK site for more information.
You can request to add your homebrew to the showcase.
- To do so, first fork the website on GitHub.
- Create a new file
_homebrew/x-name.md
wherex
is a unique id which you should choose as the next available number andname
is a short-name for your homebrew. - Fill the contents of
_homebrew/x-name.md
appropriately. Look at one of the other entries as a template. The fields should be self explanatory. - Take a screenshot of the homebrew, make sure it is a PNG file and copy it to
assets/homebrew/x-name.md
whereid
andname
should be the same as above. For the best results, make sure your screenshot is 240x136. - Commit the changes and send a pull request.
