Launch arbitrary Windows/Mac/Linux programs through Kodi. Good for games.
Programs can have a name, year, description, boxart, fanart, and path to the program or shortcut. You can launch them from the addon, but I prefer to display as a widget on my home screen.
The year and description get picked up by some themes (Arctic Horizon) but not others (Arctic Fuse). YMMV
Although you can add and edit programs from within Kodi, the data is stored in a plain JSON file that can be updated directly — this saves a lot of clicking around if you have a bunch of items to add or update.
Sort by title or last played. No categories, no scraping, no suspending Kodi when the program launches, etc. No features.
This was 90% made by claude.ai and I have no idea what I’m doing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
