Intro

The purpose of this guide is to teach you how Stremio add-ons work and how to build one yourself. This will allow you to create contents for your favorite media center.

Although this guide is structured in steps for gradual add-on building, you can also jump to certain step just for reference, when you are building your own add-on.

Who is this guide for

This guide is aimed mostly for developers willing to create a Stremio add-on.

We assume that you are familiar with computer programming, JSON and the HTTP protocol.

You can develop a Stremio add-on in any language you wish or even no programming language at all. The add-on may even be static data served over HTTP or IPFS.

Where to start

If you’re familiar with NodeJS and want to build your addon with it, proceed to our SDK guide.

Else, you can read the general purpose guide.
