A Samsung TV home screen replaced with a simple launcher
Claude Code built a clock-and-apps launcher for a Samsung Q70B, developed in a laptop browser by faking the TV APIs.

The full story
Tired of an ad-filled Samsung home screen, the maker asked Claude Code to build a simpler one with a clock, favourite apps and consoles. The biggest help was faking the few TV APIs the launcher relies on, so layout and remote navigation could be worked on in a laptop browser with quick refreshes.
Taking over the Home button was the hard part, as Samsung has no official way. Following the CleanFrame approach, a small helper edits a few undocumented TV settings, saving the originals and restoring them if something goes wrong. It has only been tried on a 2022 Q70B.
