An open-source desktop app for educational streaming interface, with a Kotlin backend and a Next.js/Electron frontend

Streamflix Desktop is a standalone desktop port of Streamflix Reborn, itself a community continuation of the original Streamflix project created by Lory-Stan TANASI. This port swaps the Android app shell for a Kotlin/JVM backend and a Next.js web UI, packaged as a native desktop app with Electron.
Streamflix Desktop provides a user interface for accessing publicly available streaming content from various third-party providers, aggregated behind a single local backend.
This app is designed for educational purposes and personal use only. Users are responsible for ensuring they have proper authorization to access any content they view through this application.
