Some of the scripts shown here may screw up your installation if you're not using Tegra hardware. Most of them should be fine to use on other systems, but double-check the source code first. In addition, keeping your Tegra system overclocked too often or rebuilding programs too often might shorten the lifespan of your system or the SD card.
All-in-one installer and updater for popular programs on L4T Ubuntu with no prior knowledge of Linux needed

The L4T Megascript is an open source multipurpose script for easily installing and updating a diverse collection of programs in L4T Ubuntu, with the purpose of helping new users to install programs and games in just a few steps. Currently designed with 18.04 in mind, but almost everything should be ready for users running 20.04 and up. Credit to the Switchroot L4T Ubuntu team for making this possible on Nintendo Switch devices, and, of course, Nvidia as well for L4T in general. We appreciate any and all feedback!
The script itself doesn't actually get installed, even though it does install a lot of other programs and features. All it downloads to your device is a little text file and desktop icon that runs the script directly off of this GitHub repo so you don't have to worry about updating things on your end!

DISCLAIMER: In the interest of transparency and security we recommend reading through the source code yourself by checking recent commit history and/or downloading a local copy of the latest source code. NEVER RUN SCRIPTS FROM THE INTERNET YOU DON'T TRUST! (That being said, if you do try reading our source code and something doesn't make sense to you, feel free to check our wiki or hop in the Discord server using the link below and ask about it - we're happy to help!)
- Bring Fedora support to ALL scripts (this is currently a very long WIP, may require custom COPR repos with build flags for Tegra in some cases)
- compile ES-DE (or just use an AppImage) as a cross-platform replacement for RetroPie (though we'd still use RetroPie's build scripts to generate the premade Tegra RetroArch cores)
- alternatively, just use vanilla RetroArch and make sure the online updater is disabled then auto download gman's cores instead
- Test the scripts against a Debian install, not just Ubuntu
- Integrate azkali's (currently private) Ubuntu 20.04 upgrade script, begin prompting users to run it once June 2023 hits?
- Finish all the wiki pages (and ideally, migrate them over in the long run to https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/ like RetroPie's really cool documentation)
do some wizardry withLD_PRELOADto provide AetherSX2 with newer system libraries so that the 20.04-built AppImage actually runs on 18.04- Really not worth the effort, I wasted 3 hours of my life trying this in 2022. Try out gman's project where he shoved AetherSX2's last AppImage release into a Flatpak package instead. Download it here!
Automate adding performance mods to the Minecraft Java script for a MASSIVE, consistent framerate boost
Done: Make sure to click the "Install Fabric" button within the Minecraft instance, otherwise the mods won't be loaded- Add a build script and default configurations for Slippi - currently not possible until they rebase on mainline Dolphin instead of Ishiiruka
Figure out a good process to compile Xemu, possibly use the PPA as a fallback
Done: Xemu doesn't support "sudo make install" so desktop files were manually moved into place using what's already in the source code- Updated Kodi packages - it's definitely possible when compiled manually, it's just a question of how easy is it to get everything we need working properly. There's already a PPA out there for 18.04, but it doesn't support ARM devices. Please let the devs know if you'd be willing to test Kodi on your ARM device at https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=366968
