Following the PS4 Remote Package Installer initial release and PS4 Remote PKG Installer Update, today developer @Joaquin Salih (aka toxxic407 on Github and TOXXIC_407 on Twitter) let us know he shared a simple frontend dubbed PS4 PKG Store for @flatz's RPI which aims to be a PlayStation 4 Homebrew Package Store with an updated version utilizing pkgs.json alongside pkginfo offering homebrew apps and games similar to PS4 Store PKG 2.2. :cool:

Download: ps4-pkg-store-master.zip / PS4 PKG Store GIT / brew.pkg (2.63 MB) / Brew-master.zip / Brew GIT / pkginfo.exe (2 MB) / pkginfo-master.zip / PKGInfo GIT / Live Demo

From the original README.md, to quote: PS4 PKG Store
:arrow: Update: From the updated README, to quote: Brew

This is a modified Version of Flatz's Remote PKG Installer with The PS4 PKG Store integrated into it. It is fully customizable (All of the Files are stored in /data/store if you want to create or install a theme)

You can host your own Packages and use them with this by modifying and hosting the pkgs.json as well as the .pkg Files somewhere and then providing the URL of the json file in the Settings.

Use pkginfo to generate the Files that are necessary to host packages.

If you want to build it yourself you'll probably need to modify the Makefile because I used weird Paths for my Files and install make (I got it through chocolatey) as well as any other Stuff that is required for the remote PKG installer.

If you messed something up, delete the /data/store Folder on your PS4 and then reinstall this App to regenerate the Folder.

And from the other ReadMe.md, to quote: pkginfo

This Tool generates and updates the json file that is required to host Packages for Brew. This Tool uses LibOrbisPkg. To create a new File from Scratch: pkginfo.exe "path/to/pkg" "developer1,developer2" "http://server.com/pkgs/" "category1,category2" "Description,line2,line3"

To add packages to an existing json file: pkginfo.exe "path/to/pkg" "developer1,developer2" "http://server.com/pkgs/" "category1,category2" "Description,line2,line3" "path/to/pkgs.json"

The Program will generate an icon File, a JSON File and a param.sfo file. The param.sfo file can be deleted after the program has finished (I was too lazy to implement that part) The icon file needs to go into the same folder where the packages are located. In case of the example this would be a folder called "pkgs" because the server url is http://server.com/pkgs/ the json file needs to be put into /data/store on the PS4.

@lotus78 I know that the progress doesn't update automatically. Every time I tried to do it either chrome or the remote PKG installer crashed.

I don't know why the download takes so long to download for you. The speed is normal for me
 
so this is to run on the laptop and basically send the pkg to the ps4. damn i thought this was like the switch shop. any chance this can be made similar. i.e just boot the pkg store on ps4 and download as you please?
