Kodi - Media streaming & player

Kodi® is a popular free and open-source multimedia player and entertainment center designed for Home Theater PCs (HTPCs). With a user-friendly interface meant for 10-foot viewing, it functions as a media player for the living room using a remote control. Users can easily navigate and enjoy videos, photos, podcasts, and music from various sources like hard drives, optical discs, local networks, and the internet.

- The Estuary skin is the standard interface known for its speed and user-friendliness.
