Hello Everyone,

I searched and found "Is there an addon for..." or information about existing addons, but I am looking for information on how to create a web interface addon. For myself, I have specific things I want my web interface to do for me. So I would LOVE to write my own, but was hoping that someone could link some wiki's and other information that would give me the framework and API details. I just now stumbled on the fact that web interfaces are even available and I am overjoyed that such a feature exists! 

I am not asking for anyone to show me how, just asking to be pointed in the right direction for some references and reading so I can create my own. I would rather do this than to reverse-engineer someone's addon, or the default one. I know HTML5, PHP, Python, MySQL, C++, XML, even BASH. This is a very exciting project I want to undertake!

Again, I searched this area for info but got a lot of hits about use of existing addons, or requests for added features. I would LOVE a link to a wiki on the framework, and anything else you can offer to help me get this done.

Thank you so very much for your time!

You can install one of the available web-interface addons and use it as your starting point in terms of the base addon structore. A web-interface addon is basically a JavaScript app that communicates with Kodi via JSON RPC: https://kodi.wiki/view/JSON-RPC_API.
A Python-based web-interface is also possible but I don't know any live examples.

I think you can see what's possible with the API in Chrous lab feature see https://github.com/xbmc/chorus2#kodi-api-browser
