WebTV: A living-room launcher for your HTPC, built as a website.

webTV is a big-screen, couch-friendly launcher inspired by modern streaming-box home screens. It simply renders a website in fullscreen, and that website can run commands on your machine to open apps. Point it at your HTPC or living room PC and use it as the front door to everything: media players, streaming apps, emulators, games, and anything else you can start from a command line.

actually it was very old project i made years ago as beginner but then there was next to no use for it so left it as it is recently i saw the rise of steam machine attempts to make one yourself and a lot of tv ui like launchers, most of them are very barebones and visually not pleasing so i remade my old browser only url opener website into fruit company's tvOS inspired interface which imo is best tv interface ever made its dynamic u can add however many apps u want + also its simple website frontend still you can easily customise since its written in tailwind css
