Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to create a homebrew app that allows people to install forwarders on the SD via WiFi, so that they can be later installed with a Wad Manager. Kinda like a Homebrew browser but for forwarders. It would work like this:
1. When loading my app, a list of other hb apps appears (let's say, Wii Mod Lite, Homebrew browser, and VBA GX).
2. Clicking one app of the list opens a new page with various forwarders (obviously each one with their respective credits), a small picture of what they look like, and a download button.
3. Pressing "Download" would install the forwarders into the WAD folder of the SD through WiFi, which should then be added to the console with any WAD manager.
I was adding a lot of homebrew stuff recently, and manually searching online for forwarders for each app was really tedious, but this aims to make that process easier without having to extract the SD every time you want a new wad. Plus, it will look more organized than having to search them online.
I have absolutely no idea on how to code this, but I would love to learn and help the community. Now, before I get very hyped, I need to know if it's possible. I suppose I'll need a database containing all of the forwarders, and a Wii with Internet, but idk what else, and idk if it would be very useful either... What do you guys think?
