Wii U Mod Store: Repository Template

This is the official template for hosting mods on the Wii U Mod Store app.

How to use

1. Fork this repository
2. Edit repo.json with your repo name and author
3. Add your games under games/[game-id]/game.json
4. Host your mod ZIPs anywhere (GitHub Releases, direct links, etc.)
5. Add your raw repo.json URL to the Mod Store app

Repository URL format

After forking, your repo index URL will look like:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-REPO/main/repo.json

Add this to sd:/wiiu/apps/modstore/config.json on your Wii U SD card:

{
  "repos": [
    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-REPO/main/repo.json"
  ]
}
