## ℹ Introduction
### What is DSpico?
DSpico is the world's first open-source DS(i) flashcart, created by the LNH team. Everything from the PCB, shell, stickers, and box art is open-source. You can either build it yourself as a DIY project or have it made by a manufacturer.
This repository contains the necessary files for the hardware of the DSpico, including a PCB, CAD design of the shell, stickers for cartridge and box art.
The PCB design is located in the [`dspico-pcb`](dspico-pcb) folder. This folder contains all the necessary files for PCB fabrication, as well as the design files created using the electronic design software Altium Designer.
The CAD design of the shell is located in the [`dspico-shell`](dspico-shell) folder. This folder contains 3D models of the shell (output 3d models and design files), which can be viewed and modified using CAD design software Autodesk Inventor
- [`design-files`](dspico-shell/design-files): Contains source design files for the shell
- [`3d-models`](dspico-shell/3d-models): Contains 3D models of the shell in STL and STEP format for fabrication.
## 🎨 Artwork: Stickers and box art
The stickers and box art design are located in the [`dspico-artwork-design`](dspico-artwork-design). This folder contains stickers for cartridge and box art in SVG, PSD and PNG formats.
Start by producing both the PCB and the shell. Go to the respective sections, [`dspico-pcb`](dspico-pcb) and [`dspico-shell`](dspico-shell), and read the README file in each to understand how to create these parts.
2.**Optional: Customize with a Sticker and Box Art**<br>
If desired, you can print a sticker from the stickers section and add box art [`dspico-artwork-design`](dspico-artwork-design) for storing your DSpico (for example, by reusing an existing box).
Follow the [guide](https://github.com/LNH-team/dspico/blob/develop/GUIDE.md) for instructions on how to compile and setup the firmware and the contents of the micro SD card.
The pitch between pins of this port is 2.54 mm such that some connectors can be soldered (as long as it does not interfere with the rest of the DSpico mechanics). For example a male or female header.

This statement serves as a formal disavowal of any financial or business dealings that may arise in relation to DSpico, and we take no responsibility for any actions or transactions carried out by third parties in this regard.
