A Developer Built a 3D VHS-Room Jellyfin Client With Claude Code, Free Mac App

A developer used Claude Code (and some Codex) to turn his Jellyfin movies into tapes on a shelf in a 3D room — pick a tape, flip it to read the sleeve, insert it into the VCR — with a shader-based VHS look, a 5,044-star sky computed for your location, and Continue Watching sync. Notable engineering: plain three.js with no bundler, WebP sleeve caching so 140 tapes fit in memory, on-demand rendering, and native Swift fallback when macOS refused geolocation. Free Mac app (macOS 12+), requires a Jellyfin server.
