# Stream TV Project
-Stream TV is a project developed at [Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences (h_da)](https://h-da.de) for the [User-Centric Software Development](https://obs.fbi.h-da.de/mhb/modul.php?nr=30.7317&pdf=PDF) hands-on training. In the course the students develop an Android app that remote controls the Stream TV Server.

+This server displays streams of the popular [Twitch.tv](https://twitch.tv) livestream platform on the student's target device (laptop, desktop, tv, smart device, etc.).
The apps can request the server via a simple HTTP API to query the Twitch API for content and to change the state of the display (e.g. control playback).
The project is intended as an direct successor to the [TV Server](https://lernen.h-da.de/course/view.php?id=6802) which displays static still frames of german TV channels.

- **Differentiate app designs and diversify stereotypes:** The legacy TV Server only has one endpoint to *discover* content. By providing 7 distinct endpoints to the Twitch API students can differentiate themselves in their project, stereotypes and design. Of course that doesn't mean all endpoints must be used.
-- **Improve usefulness:** The apps for the legacy TV Server are completely useless after the course. We hope that our project is actually useful and might still be relevant after the course.
