Note that when an hex address is given, it's meant to instruct as to which address to bload or to send (ie foenixmgr python script) the program (ie a .bin file) to before running it.

Many download links are posts in the main Foenix Retro Systems discord server which will require you to join in order to get to them.

A Demo Archive was put together in September 2023 to get ready to show to youtubers, some of these are linked once more, in this page.

There's also the Foenix Marketplace website maintained by EMWhite with its own collection of articles and software http://apps.emwhite.org/foenixmarketplace/.
