## What it is
A Windows application (UI plus background service) that automatically powers LG WebOS TVs and displays on and off in sync with the PC, including shutdown, sleep, idle, and monitor topology changes. It also provides a command-line tool and an API for external scripts to control TV settings.

## Use cases
- turn my LG TV on and off with my PC
- automatically power off WebOS TV when PC shuts down
- control LG TV settings from the command line
- use TV as a PC monitor and manage power automatically
- script automation for LG WebOS TV
- wake and sleep LG TV with Windows sleep mode

## When to choose
- you use an LG WebOS TV as a PC display and want automatic power management
- you need a CLI or API to control LG TV settings from scripts
- you run a multi-monitor Windows setup including a WebOS TV

## When to avoid
- you have a non-LG or non-WebOS TV
- you need control from macOS or Linux
- you only want a mobile remote app for your TV
