Module ctru::applets

System Applets.

Applets are small integrated programs that the OS makes available to the developer to streamline commonly needed functionality. Thanks to these integrations the developer can avoid wasting time re-implementing common features and instead use a more reliable base for their application.

Unlike services, applets aren’t accessed via a system subprocess (which would require obtaining a special handle at runtime). Instead, the application builds a configuration storing the various parameters which is then used to “launch” the applet.

Applets block execution of the thread that launches them as long as the user doesn’t close the applet.
