This tool allows you to easily change the background and the layout of the Home menu and other parts of the switch os.
All firmwares >= 5.0.0 are officially supported, older firmwares should be compatible but haven't been tested.
The app is pretty straightforward to use: themes are in SZS format and are extracted from the home menu RomFS, open a compatible szs, open a 1280x720 image to use as a background and click on save.
There is a complete tutorial in the release thread.
Features:
No installation is needed, just extract the files and run the main exe, this app requires .NET Framework 4.6, and works on linux through wine (Some features like image to DDS and NCA extraction are windows only).
In addition to the windows version there is also a web version, it has more limited functionality (eg. you'll have to convert your images to DDS manually), but you can use it to legally share themes with the Auto-Theme feature, you can find it here.
