What can I do with LinuxMCE?
Following is a list of things you can do with LinuxMCE. Each link goes to a how-to page which has 3 parts:
- How to set it up
- How to use it
- Where to find the source code (and how it works)
The list is not complete, and many of the topics do not yet have documentation. Not all documentation pages have screen shots and pictures. Feel free to add your own documentation to the wiki.
Most of the articles reflect tested procedures (even if the documentation is not written). Items in italics describe modules still in development or that have been only partially completed. Items with an * have been coded, and should work, but have not been fully tested.
Note: This is an introduction article only. The complete list of articles is found in the Tutorials Category.

Building a new Home around LinuxMCE
Linux MCE is the ultimate smart home. With proper planning, a new construction home can integrate LinuxMCE as the brains of the house.
In the past, a Home Entertainment Center would house a Home Theater PC. With LinuxMCE, the Core server and all communications hubs can be kept in a separate area. This makes home construction easier, allows centralization of data services, and allows for updating the home automation and multimedia system without altering the Home Entertainment Center in your living room.
