MusicPlayah

A music player application developed with React Native.

Introduction

Who doesn't enjoy music? I personally listen to music every single day at least twice while walking my dog. At some point I became tired of Spotify's interruption of your music with non-premium accounts, so instead of paying the measly amount asked by Spotify and getting an endless stream of music in question of seconds I decided to do something much easier... building my own custom music player application.... it couldn't be that difficult... right?

... One week later ...

- Oh oh...

... Two weeks later ...

- (Scratching head motion with a heavy sigh) Hmmm, too late to back out I guess...

Current state of the project

This is a work-in-progress project

Some of the features intended:

  • Retrieving songs from the phone's memory
  • Main song queue
  • Playback management (play/pause/next/prev/changing song)
  • Very basic UI showing songs and playback state
  • Alternative song queue with user-picked songs from the main queue
  • UI for the alternative queue
  • Retrieving songs from the cloud

Caveats

Android only

This is an application built for myself, basically I'm (AFAIK) the only user of it, and I have an Android, so there's no reason to create an iOS version, even though React Native makes building multi-platform apps easier some work needs to be put for each platform. At the same time in order to build a product for Apple users you have to be an Apple user yourself, and I'm not (Android phone and Linux laptop).
