Creating a custom home screen section for all users - BoomBlooper - 2024-06-03

I've never written any plugin for Jellyfin before but I have written software before. I've tried to find this information on my own but the documentation seems sparse or perhaps I just don't know what to search for.

What I'd like to create is some home screen sections similar to "Continue Watching" and "Next Up" that shows the contents of a specific playlist to all users and with a custom title. Is this something a plugin can do? If so could you direct me to some resources on how I might accomplish this?

Thanks!

This sounds like you want to make a collection, but add it as a section of the homepage?

Alternatively, this https://forum.jellyfin.org/t-featured-content-bar?pid=8719#pid8719 takes a custom titled list and makes a slideshow, but it would be easy to modify it to a row of items instead.
