# Switch-Homebrew-Lab/switch2-jailbreak-bootstrapper > A Nintendo Switch 2 jailbreak tool: a PowerShell script that delivers a payload over USB-C and activates custom firmware on firmware 23.0.1. - Magnitude: 6.0 out of 10 — Early signal - Stars: 125 total · +5 stars measured 2026-10-27, 02:43–05:32 UTC, ≈ 82 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Hardware, IoT & robotics · License: MIT · Created: 2026-10-26 · Last push: 2026-10-26 - GitHub: https://github.com/Switch-Homebrew-Lab/switch2-jailbreak-bootstrapper · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/Switch-Homebrew-Lab/switch2-jailbreak-bootstrapper ## Useful for - Run the PowerShell script to activate CFW on a Switch 2 over USB-C - Back up the NAND before writing the payload ## Why it’s here - Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-27 (UTC), 02:43–05:32: 120 → 125 stars (+5). This is the change over that interval. - Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +82 stars, using observed gains and the previous day. - The repository is 1 day old and already has 125 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. - Top new repositories this week: #176. - About 280 forks a day — people are taking the code. ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 51 - Issues and pull requests: 1 - Watchers: 1 - Average over the last week: 104 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 0 - Latest release: v1.0.0 (2026-10-26) ## Stars per day, last 2 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-10-26 … 2026-10-27: 126, 5 ## Spotted in now - Top new repositories this week: #176 ## Similar by description 1. **cpypwn/mac2jb** — 2.6 · Early signal · Hardware, IoT & robotics · JavaScript · +1 star measured 2026-10-27, 00:34–05:35 UTC, ≈ 14 by evening Experimental macOS app for Apple Silicon that sets up ns2jb on a Switch 2 via USB keyboard and SmileBASIC, then launches homebrew tools from the same window. Full card: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/cpypwn/mac2jb.md --- Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
