One of the big fun of using Kodi is to constantly explore and use various novel third-party add-ons. However, I have to say that the steps for installing each add-on are actually a bit cumbersome. It was not until I installed Kodzi that I realized this process can be streamlined. If you haven't experienced Kodzi yet, you're gonna love it, I promise.
Kodi Kodzi AddonGit Browser is probably an acquaintance of quite a lot of Kodi users, which makes it much easier to install any add-on hosted on GitHub. By contrast, Kodzi seems to be sort of a low profile, but it virtually performs more prominent. In addition to installing from GitHub, Kodzi also attempts to install a repo or add-on from any website URL as long as there is a zip file available on that webpage.

Now I'll illustrate the detailed steps to install Kodzi for Kodi, just read on.
