## What it is
A Docker-packaged shell tool that sideloads the Jellyfin client app onto Samsung Tizen smart TVs with a single command. It wraps the Tizen development environment needed to install the app, which is not yet available in Samsung's app store.

## Use cases
- install jellyfin on my samsung tv
- sideload jellyfin app onto tizen tv without setting up tizen sdk
- deploy jellyfin client to samsung smart tv over the network
- install a specific jellyfin tizen build or older release on my tv
- use a custom samsung certificate to install jellyfin on tizen

## When to choose
- you own a Samsung Tizen TV and want Jellyfin without manually installing the Tizen Studio toolchain
- you want a one-command, repeatable installation or upgrade of the Jellyfin TV client
- you need to install a specific build variant (e.g., TrueHD) or an older release version

## When to avoid
- your TV is not a Samsung Tizen device
- you expect Jellyfin from the official Samsung app store (it is not listed there yet)
- you cannot put your computer and TV on the same local network or enable developer mode on the TV
