Overview

A desktop music player for a local library: it indexes a folder, reads the tags, and gives you playlists, search and a play queue.

The fiddly part was metadata. Real music folders are full of missing tags, wrong encodings and inconsistent artist names, so the indexer normalises what it can and falls back to the filename rather than showing a blank row.

What it does

  • Indexes a local folder and reads audio tags
  • Playlists, search and a reorderable queue
  • Graceful fallbacks for missing or malformed metadata
  • Keyboard shortcuts for playback
