Archon is in it's very early stages, and should be considered pre-Alpha at this point.

Archon is a server to manage everything in a home, while at the same time helping to removed everything from the cloud and protect a family's privacy at the same time. Archon uses all open-source software to allow anyone to audit the software and see exactly what all the software is doing without hiding anything. A majority of the software will be installed via docker to make it easier to manage everything using the docker web interface Portainer.

Archon is a Greek word that means "ruler". This will help you take control of your home and your internet connection.

Anyone wondering why Jellyfin was chosen can look at this Compare Media Servers page. The main reason is open-source support and full client/server architecture.
