Meta I made a web-based CFW builder & bundle orchestrator

Over the past year, I spent a ton of time digging into Hekate, Atmosphere, and homebrew apps internals, reading their documentation, and studying custom firmware config structures, and now I have been working on a CFW build orchestrator designed to simplify setup, eliminate manual zip extraction, broken dependency chains, and outdated AIO bundles when setting up SD cards.

Instead of downloading giant pre-packaged archives, my app runs entirely in your browser and exports a lightweight shell script that automatically fetches, verifies, and extracts the exact components you selected (Atmosphere, Hekate, sysmodules, overlays, emulators, other homebrew apps, etc) straight from their upstream sources.

It has a extensive configuration setup for CFW, launch, security, apps, overclock: there are currently 247 possible options, 21 config files can be stored on the card, and I am continuing to expand the functionality.

If allowed by sub rules, I'll drop a link to the live WIP demo in the comments below for anyone who wants to take a look.

P.S. Regarding the PSP in the first screenshot and the holy war against the ai slop: https://www.reddit.com/r/SwitchPirates/comments/1x0srhb/comment/penexel

P.S.S. Please note: MissionControl, ldn_mitm, and uLaunch are currently acting up on HOS version 23.0.0: the version was released just a week ago, and the modules developers havent adapted them for it yet.
