Lofi is a mini Spotify player with visualizations. It is not a replacement for the Spotify Desktop app, nor does it play music independently of the Spotify app; instead, Lofi works alongside it to provide a more intuitive and pleasant access to common features. Lofi also displays cover art and track info stylishly and it facilitates WebGL-powered audio visualizations for both Windows, MacOS and Linux. In other words, it's a "tiny Spotify player" or a "mini mode" to enhance the Spotify desktop app.

1:1

To build, you'll need node-gyp
, a compatible Python version (2.x), and your operating system's SDK (Microsoft Build Tools or Xcode).
First, you'll need to run:
$ yarn install
If you have more than one Python installation on your system, you can prevent the build from failing by editing the package.json
file in the root directory.
Append the following on the "build": ...
line:
--python path/to/python27
Now you can run yarn install
again.
To create a setup file, run yarn run dist
. The output will be located in ./dist
.
$ yarn run dist
To develop, open up a Terminal and type:
$ yarn run development
$ yarn run start
