Kodi remote written in C++ using Qt 6.5. Qore2 is intended as a dropin replacement for grantrutherford's excellent MacOS dashboard remote now that Apple have retired the MacOS dashboard.
Qore2 supports up to 3 Kodi instances, menu navigation, volume control, info and context functions, previous, rewind, play/pause, fast forward, next and facilitates sending text input too. The application runs in the menu bar/system tray and can be activated on a global hotkey or by clicking the icon.
Configuration includes defining the WebSocket IP/host and port for each Kodi instance, and a global hotkey binding and dark/light icon theme. At present I have no plans to support customisable Kodi input bindings, sorry.
