#TL;DR Nothing works at all.
Swift running on Nintendo 3DS, because why not?
Because I had no idea what I'm doing. And that's the best kind of an adventure
I'm not exactly sure to be honest.
But what I think it does:
- Export parts of https://github.com/smealum/ctrulib by @smealum as a LLVM module
- Compile Swift into LLVM IR with that modules
- Use clang to compile that LLVM IR into an freestanding arm executable
- Use devkitPro to link everything together
$ make
In emulator:
$ citra Swift3DS.elf
To run on an a real device, an existing entrypoint for 3rd party code-execution must be installed, I recommend https://github.com/yellows8/3ds_homemenuhax by @yellow8
