+==Developing applications==
+Development of Wii homebrew applications is both fun and challenging. If you want to develop homebrew for the Wii, you will need some tools.
+===Developing===
+* You can use [[DevkitPro]] to develop applications. Tutorials for setting up DevkitPro are available for [[Devkitppc setup (Windows)|Windows]], [[Devkitppc setup (Linux)|Linux]], and [[Devkitppc setup (Mac OS X)|Mac OS X]].
+* You should read [[Developer tips|developer tips]] before starting to develop to learn about standards and essential code.
+* The [[List of development tools|list of development tools]] contains many code libraries and resources that are useful for developing.
+===Releasing===
+* If you would like to create a page for your application while developing it, create it in your user namespace and link to it on the [[List of homebrew applications (in development)]] page. You can move it to the article namespace when it is released.
+* It is strongly recommended to create icon.png and meta.xml files for your application to make it compatible with the [[Homebrew Channel]].
+* When your application is ready to be released, you can create a page for your application in the article namespace. Make sure to add the {{tl|infobox homebrewapp}} template and fill it in as much as you can.
+* If you would like, you can host your application here on wiibrew by [[Special:Upload|uploading]] it. Otherwise, you can upload it somewhere else and link to it. Please avoid sites like Rapidshare, as they are slow and a hassle to download from.
