tvgids/README.md

tvgids

This an online TV guide for Dutch TV channels, realized using the TVGids.nl API. This web page is designed to be an alternative for http://tvgids.nl/lijsten/horizontaal, offering a quick-to-use interface that saves preferences (e.g. favorite channels) in HTML5 local storage, rather than requiring a registered account.

A working version is available at http://tvgids.tkroes.nl.

Features

• Complete list of programs for 123 channels.
• See programs from 2 days before and 2 days ahead.
• Select favourite channels (saved using HTML5 local storage).
• Click on a program to see detailed information (screen-scraped from TVGids.nl).
• Select favourite programs, which remain highlighted in the future (saved using HTML5 local storage).

Issues & TODO

• Add timestamp to favourite programs, and remove entries older than 7 days to prevent clogging.
