sdk-seven provides all the necessary components for building software for the Game Boy Advance. It is built from scratch with an emphasis on correctness and performance. While still in active development, the core components have proven quite solid already.
It includes the following components:
- libseven, a development library for interacting with the GBA hardware
- minrt, a runtime library for building and running GBA ROMs
- Python helper scripts
- meson >=0.59.0
- arm-none-eabi toolchain (gcc, binutils, newlib)
./meson-setup.sh
ninja -C build
Development of sdk-seven and other GBA homebrew projects can be supported through Patreon.
You can also reach out to us in the #sdk-seven channel in the
