Raspberry Pi 4 appliance that boots as a WiFi access point and serves a
phone-controlled web app for browsing /localmedia and driving video
playback out the Pi's HDMI port.
- NetworkManager-based AP setup (documented in README)
- Flask app + vanilla HTML/JS single-page UI (Control / Playback modes)
- mpv persistent daemon (DRM/KMS HDMI output) controlled over JSON IPC
- long-lived session-cookie auth
- "keep playing" folder auto-advance, including when started mid-folder
- systemd units for both mpv and the app, autostart on boot
