📦 Installation
Please take a look at the documentation for different ways of installing Streamlink:
👍 Features
Streamlink is built on top of a plugin system which allows support for new services to be added easily.

... and many more. A list of all plugins currently included can be found on the plugins page.
💡 Quickstart
After installing, simply run:
