Modern music players often rely on heavy GUI and platform-specific applications, limiting accessibility, resource efficiency, and user flexibility. Many tools fail to
integrate local and online playback seamlessly, and few provide Spotify playlist support without locking users into proprietary ecosystems.
System administrators, DevOps engineers, and backend developers spend the majority of their time in terminal environments. GUI-based music players force
users to leave their workflow context, causing unnecessary disruptions. These users seek tools that are lightweight, highly capable, and seamlessly integrated
into their terminal workflows.
However, most existing CLI-based music players are fragmented across different services and are primarily tailored for Linux only, leaving users on other
platforms users (Windows and macOS) with limited or no viable options.
