## Description

Kometa Quickstart is a guided web interface for creating and managing Kometa configurations. It runs as a self-hosted web application accessible via browser, offering multiple installation methods including Docker, standalone binaries for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and a local Python install. Quickstart provides a step-by-step validated workflow for configuring Plex libraries, collections, overlays, and metadata, with instant feedback before generating the final YAML. It includes safe playground mode with test libraries, SQLite-backed config storage with version history and bundle export/import, and built-in runners for Kometa and ImageMaid with maintenance-aware scheduling. The UI features live overlay previews, a theme picker (Kometa, Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, Seerr), cross-app analytics with log scanning, and optional integrations with services like Tautulli, OMDb, MDBList, Radarr, Sonarr, Trakt, and MyAnimeList. Quickstart manages its own Kometa runtime in managed mode or can connect to an existing direct install or external containerized config path. All credentials and configurations are kept locally in a user-controlled workspace.
