CINEMAH (ver. 2.1) is a static web interface that help you organize movies and TV shows that you find across the web (ie. YouTube, Google Drive, etc). It is designed to be responsive and accessed both on Desktop and Mobile devices and can be installed as web app on Android, iOS and iPadOS. It does not have or need a backend. All content is dynamically loaded from json and html files.
Navigate to the data folder. Choose the JSON file that fits the category you're looking to modify (for example: comedy.json).
Inside you'll find content scrutured like this.
{ "ytid": "tDolNU89SXI", "vidurl": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDolNU89SXI", "movietitle": "Mark Normand: Out to Lunch" },
ytid uses a YouTube ID to populate a thumbnail for this title. vidurl is the link to the video. movietitle is the title of the video.
The rest takes care of itself.
Navigate to the data folder. Edit the tvshows.json file.
Inside you'll find content scrutured like this.
{ "imgurl": "https://yt3.googleusercontent.com/p02AWxuQdbDeG6CR5RqKgR2TkHBzftLAr_O4QyeNHm-8Z6WkJNKWMJRZmxM8nssgdEEb9e7CKQ", "vidurl": "#tv-kitchennightmares", "movietitle": "Kitchen Nightmares" },
imgurl is a URL pointing at an image online. vidurl is an HTML ID you assign to the show. movietitle is the title of the TV Show.
The actual seasons will live inside of /data/tv-html/tvshows.html for the time being. This is where the vidurl ID that you created comes into play.
Inside the HTML you'll see a TV show structured like this at the bottom of the page. If you're adding a new show, it is probably easiest to copy and modify an existing one.

` The links ideally link to a YouTube playlist that contains a full season of a TV Show with a thumbnail image that fits the season attached in the image source. Below, you'll describe what the title is. For example: "Kitchen Nightmares: Season 1".
YouTube often has great shows uploaded, but when you're binging, searching for the next episode can really take you out of the experience. Cinemah allows you to binge without interruptions by organizing the content you find ahead of time.
Clone this repo and post it to your web server or GitHub pages. Since you're not hosting any of the videos, the installation remains small and lightweight.
