WatchBuddy is built on a decentralized and extensible architecture. You are not limited to pre-defined content; you can create your own content providers and integrate them into the WatchBuddy ecosystem effortlessly.

The ExampleProvider project serves as the official blueprint for developers:

• Plug & Play: Simply add your provider URL to the WatchBuddy app to start watching.
• Isolated Development: Build and test your providers in a local environment, independent of the core system.
• Powered by KekikStream: Utilize modern link extraction tools to resolve media URLs. Based on the architecture of KekikStreamAPI.

🚀 Build Your Own: Use the ExampleProvider template to connect your own content provider to WatchBuddy with minimal Python code.

• ⏱️ Real-Time Synchronization: Playback sync for all participants, network conditions permitting.
• 🌍 Versatile Media Support: Native support for M3U/HLS streams and direct video URLs.
• 🛡️ No-Hosting Policy: We are a synchronization bridge. We do not host, store, or distribute any media content.
• ☁️ Cloud Connectivity: Optional profile sync to keep your favorites and history available across your devices.
• 💬 Integrated Interaction: Real-time chat and reaction sharing during your watch parties.

WatchBuddy is available on Android and iOS.
