Vimeo Roku Feed

Work In Progress, proceed at your own risk. Pull requests welcome.

Instantly publish a Roku app powered by your Vimeo channel.

This app generates and serves a Roku Direct-compatible feed using data from the Vimeo API.

Note that this requires a Vimeo PRO or Vimeo Business account.
