fastpotify

ONE BINARY, THREE PLATFORMS

fastpotify: a native Rust Spotify client for Linux, macOS and Windows

fastpotify: a native Spotify client written in Rust, covering your library, local playback and Spotify Connect on Linux, macOS and Windows. 469 stars a few hours in.

The pitch is in the word lightweight, one small binary rather than a Chromium shell doing the same job. That part is credible; a native client will win on memory and cold start every time.

The risk sits somewhere else, though. Connect and library access both run through whatever Spotify chooses to keep open to third parties, and that surface has narrowed before. A rewrite fixes the footprint. It does not change who controls the endpoint. Rust gets the resource use down; the thing I would watch on this project is the API terms, not the frame times.

crmne/fastpotify: a Spotify client written in Rust for Linux, macOS and Windows, claiming the whole library, local playback and Spotify Connect in one app. Local playback means it decodes and plays itself rather than only driving another device. #software
