Jangal

Desktop-centric native media explorer and player.

Goals

  • Non-intrusive media management - In other words, Jangal does not touch the media files and does not expect any particular file structure. It will scan any list of directories for discovery.
  • Automatically finds and populates metadata from TMDB.
  • Native, fast, and low profile.
  • Built-in video player that tracks watched movies/episodes.

Non-goals

  • Be an all-in-one media manager/server. This is not a Plex/Jellyfin/etc alternative.
  • Support non-desktop platforms (e.g., smart TV). In fact, Kodi lacking a good desktop UX was the motivating factor for Jangal.
