Woopsi DS developer Ant512 is sending out word that the Woopsi developer's kit has just been updated to version 0.25. If you're a first-time reader wondering what this is, Woopsi is a GUI development library patterned after the AmigaOS windowing system. Ant512 built Woopsi to give fellow DS coders a means of creating their own user interface (UI) for their homebrew projects. As for the changelog since version 0.24 (the previous release):

Keep in mind that to get Woopsi running, you will need to have either a DS handheld, or a DS emulator on your PC. You'll also need devKitPro, PALib and an IDE to compile your projects. Further details (such as author and licensing details) are available in the file bundle's readme.
