Don't see your media player above? If you're a developer who wants to integrate Shoko with a new media player, join our Discord, and we'll be more than happy to provide guidance and assistance.
At this time, the Shoko team itself has no plans to integrate Shoko with any other media players.
Install the latest .net sdk
Build TrayService or CLI from VS Code or command line via:
dotnet build Shoko.TrayService/Shoko.TrayService.csproj

Build from CLI:
dotnet build -c=Release -r linux-x64 -f net8.0 Shoko.CLI/Shoko.CLI.csproj
If that doesn't work, this document may be out of date. Check the dockerfile for guaranteedly updated build steps.
