A Plex Web-style client for [Jellyfin](https://jellyfin.org).

Note

jellex was written entirely by an LLM (Claude) in directed sessions.

jellex is a single-page app that talks to the Jellyfin API directly from the browser: there is no backend to run. It deploys to Cloudflare Workers; point it at your server and sign in.

```
npm install
npm run dev
```

Then open [http://localhost:32400](http://localhost:32400) and sign in to your Jellyfin, or use "Try
the Jellyfin demo" to sign in to Jellyfin's public demo server.
`npm run build` builds it, and `npx wrangler deploy` deploys it
(`wrangler.jsonc`). See
[AGENTS.md](https://github.com/iridium/jellex/blob/main/AGENTS.md) for more.
