Created page with "This is a list of elements that a skin should have to be the default skin in Kodi, as defined by Team Kodi. This is a work in progress. == Technical guidelines == * Skin sho..."

New page

This is a list of elements that a skin should have to be the default skin in Kodi, as defined by Team Kodi. This is a work in progress.

== Technical guidelines ==

* Skin should be open source and allow for commercial use. For example, GPL 2.0 or CC-SA-BY 3.

* Should run reasonably well for basic use on our lowest performing target device, which is currently the [[Raspberry Pi]].

* Should avoid requiring lots of other add-ons for basic use.
** Any "hard-required" add-ons must be distributable with Kodi. If additional add-ons/modules are deemed nessesary then they must be using a compatible license so they can be distributed with Kodi, without requiring additional downloads.
** The total file size for the skin and anything it requires must be reasonably low {{editor note|(should we have a rough estimate here?) -Ned }}.
** Optional features that use other add-ons might be okay as long as those add-ons don't need to be installed for basic usage. For example, Confluence in v13 can optionally use TvTunes, but still works without it.

== User experience guidelines ==

* "Easy to use" {{editor note|Broadly speaking, as we will probably want to break "ease of use" out into more specific examples. -Ned}}

* Support all included Kodi features, such as PVR.
