SimpleUEFI:

Reason:

Well, i found the installation and usage of the EDK2 extemely tedious, then i discovered VisualUEFI which implements the EDK2 into visual studio but still i wasn't quite satisfied since i tend to reinstall windows really often i coded a little script in python (yh, not in batch cuz i was lazy) that sets up some presets on VisualStudio with which you can create UEFI applications/Dxe Drivers/UEFI Drivers projects.

• VisualUEFI By: ionescu007
• EDK2 By: TianoCore

Requirements:

• [x] NASM (Netwide Assembler)
• [x] Python
• [x] GIT (For submodules)

Usage:

1. Install all the requirements listed above.
2. Clone the repo using the following command git clone https://github.com/Th3Spl/SimpleUEFI --recursive
3. Use the command line python Setup.py
4. The python file will automatically move all the needed files
5. Once the program stops it will open a folder
6. Open EDK-II.sln with VisualStudio and compile (x64 Release)
7. Once you compiled EDK-II.sln click any keybind on the terminal
8. The program will automatically copy the presets in the VisualStudio templates folder
9. Open VisualStudio and search for either Uefi Application/Dxe Driver/Uefi Driver
10. Create a new project using a preset and if everything worked it should compile without issues.

TODO:

• [ ] Add qemu debugging options to presets (Partially added).
